Installing M-Audio Ozone on 64 Studio / Ubuntu Hardy

I had to install the drivers for my M-Audio Ozone again today and thought I would put the steps in a nice little package here.

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install madfuload
$ sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/42-madfuload.rules

Comment or delete it all out and put in this line:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0763", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2808", RUN+="/usr/local/sbin/madfuload -l -3 -f /usr/local/share/usb/maudio/ma008100.bin -D $env{DEVNAME}"

$ sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart

Plug in and power on the Ozone.

$ dmesg |tail
should see a line like "usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio"
$ aplay -l
You should see the Ozone listed as a sound device.

Happy jammin. :)

Hi. Thanks for the fantastic starting hint about how to do this. Several things have changed since you wrote this post (I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 at the moment):

1. http://linuxindetails.wordpress.com/2009/12/30/udevd-sysfs-will-be-removed-in-a-future-udev-version-please-use-attr-to-match-the-event-device/ point out that SYSFS{} should now be replaced with ATTR{}

2. the files have moved, from /usr/local/... to /usr/...

3. I had terrible trouble with my system -- rules worked fine if I ran sudo udevd --debug, but failed if I ran the background service. I finally fixed this with sudo dpkg-reconfigure udev

All working perfectly now, as far as I can see...
