https://linux1394.org/how-to-leverage-firewire-for-real-time-audio-production-on-linux-in-2026/

If you're a #musician, #audioEngineer, do #musicProduction, and you use #GNUlinux then #IEEE1394 #FireWire is as good as ever.

I've got an old laptop with a mini 1394 port and an #Alexis Multimix (12?) mixing board. It works fine and I don't really need more right now. Might get a PCI-E to FireWire adaptor card for my old desktop partially just because. There is a small advantage to it over USB.

idk how much more I'll obtain. It's cheap. lol

What's better is #MADI, #DANTE, #ADAT direct to PCI-E. Use Cat6+ if you've really got that many channels.

 Haack's Networking - Drawing Tablets & X11/Wayland  

🖥️ It is nice to see that my Gaomon tablets work right out of the box under KDE 6.6, Debian 14, and Wayland ...

🎉 Massive thanks to the #wayland #redhat team and also a shout to @davidrevoy who recently dropped his Interim setup which first clued me in to "mouse mode" being on the horizon for stable 💘 (finally)

✅️ Sure enough, in Debian Testing w/ Wayland, the "Drawing Tablet" setting in KDE 6.6 automagically works with the following Gaomon tablets with no proprietary driver installed:

1️⃣ MK 2018
2️⃣ PD 1161

💡 The last two years were choppy and I even had to write a custom X config for the MK 2018 to teach an applied math course. Until recently, seeing no progress on the horizon for "out of the box" functionality, I had settled on @XLibreDev @sonicdesktop and was quite happy. In fact, very grateful to them for getting me by this last year - mucho thanks. #xlibre #sonicde #sonic

🏁 But, at the end of the day, I really need mainstream / stock Debian to just work with drawing products, not just for me ... but for my daughter's art projects - she just got her art accepted at @ffmpeg and I'm very proud of her. We rely on these products - there's no denying. At present:

Dascha uses:
1) X1 Carbon 4th Gen - using KDE neon stable (art attached that she did at 13 for ffmpeg)

2) HP All-In-One Touch i5 - using KDE neon stable

All working better natively in Wayland than under the prop driver. They work similarly well to how they work in X now.

Jonathan (me) uses:
1) 3x mini Ryzen PCs - KDE 6.6, Debian Testing, and Wayland - 1 w/ PD 1161 and 2 w/ MK 2018 - all working including "mouse mode" under wayland / stock Debia (art / teaching).

2) Dell 1950 laptop 2023 i7 w/ NVIDIA - had to manually build the nvidia driver under latest on their website, other than that no issues, running Debian Testing, Wayland, KDE 6.6 - MK 2018 works via USBC hub for teaching

3) X1 Carbon 4th gen i5 - Debian Testing, KDE 6.6, Wayland - works with Wacom stylus similar to Dascha's setup no issues

⁉️ How did this happen? I was fixing an old Precision 7920 and setting it up as a PeerTube runner on Lubuntu 26.04 (better with NVIDIA lol). I got bored and installed Kubuntu Desktop and then pluggeed in an MK 2018. It worked ... & so I started testing and researching KDE point releases & looking back at Mr. Revoy's post and switched all 7 machines over in < 48 hours.
