From Jkenny:

Open source drivers for the original Hiface devices (not the new Hiface 2 which already has Linux/Unix support) are now available from a 3rd party See here - https://github.com/panicking/snd-usb-asyncaudio
See this post from someone using my JKDAC32 with this driver on Linux http://theartofsound.net/forum/showpost.php?p=375868&postcount=142
This will work with all my Hiface based converters & DACs

Steve- maybe this will work with your present OffRamp?

Yes, but depends on the Linux environment.  Must be a PC with Ubuntu OS.

It is in beta testing stage.

For those with their own Linux system, this should work.  For servers running Linux, I still need the XMOS solution unless they install this capability ...  It would be nice not to have to design another USB module...

So, is there at least a possibility that updated drivers will be available for Offramp 4 and 5 in the future, including for use with Mac OSX (so that integer mode with the various playback software might be operable)?

I think this would require the new XMOS USB module.  No additional driver needed.
