ADAT input for SBlive, need help...

[Pilo]

The emu10k1 (and emu10k2) are quite interesting chip : they have many 
independant inputs and outputs. Under Windows, there is the KX driver which 
can use this via ASIO : 16 input channels. all FX input, physical input(I2S, 
SPDIF), fx output and physical output(I2S SPDIF) can be routed to each other, 
and so in a recording software we can have the 14 physical input which the 
emu10k1 offer (2 SPDIF, 5 I2S).
On a basic SBlive, there's 4 I2S which are not used. I am designing, with 
other people a ADC board (with PCM1804 ADC, which can work up to 
24bit/192khz). The first test board works, under windows I have one more 
stereo input, which can be recorded indenpendantly. The goal is to add a ADAT 
input (and maybe output) to the SBlive... which I think will be very easy, as 
Alesis sells ADAT chip for about $5... So yes, a ADAT daughter board for the 
SBlive can be VERY cheap.
I know I can used this under windows, with very good latency... but we want it 
to work under linux! We so need a new driver... like the KX driver under 
windows...
Can somebody help us on that? I think people from KX driver can help us, as 
their driver is free. (http://www.kxproject.com).

 Thanks you for reading ;)
