From: Rui Maciel on 14 Apr 2010 07:13 I'm looking for a sound input device to be able to do some home recordings and use my computer as some sort of improvised amp. Is there any sound input device which is explicitly supported on linux? Bonus points if it's a USB device. Thanks in advance, Rui Macie

If you want to connect a guitar to it a plain vanilla USB soundcard won't do, get one with a guitar input. Google for eg. "linux guitar soundcard USB" or ask in a .hardware or music-related group.
