-1. To get the US-122 working without audio glitches:
+1. For 3.x series kernels, you'll have to disable USB autosuspend.
+Actually this is a good idea for any system that uses USB audio, or
+even any desktop system that doesn't need to save every last milliwatt
+of power possible. If you don't do this, the US-122 will usually work
+for a few seconds, then freeze up with "incomplete URB" messages in dmesg.
+
+In Slackware's kernels, usbcore is built into the kernel (even the
+-generic one), so you'll have to pass a parameter on the kernel's
+command line.
+
+In /etc/lilo.conf, in the section for your kernel, add a line like
+this:
+
+  append="usbcore.autosuspend=-1"
+
+If you already had an append=, add usbcore.autosuspend=-1 to the options
+inside the double-quotes. An example might be:
+
+  append="threadirqs usbcore.autosuspend=-1"
+
+(BTW, threadirqs is a useful option for systems that need low latency for
+realtime audio).
+
+Don't forget to re-run "lilo" and reboot after editing lilo.conf.
+
+There's another method for disabling autosuspend that doesn't require
+a reboot. Do this:
+
+# echo "-1" > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend
+# for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/autosuspend; do
+#   echo "-1" > $i
+# done
+
+Put that code in /etc/rc.d/rc.local (or in a separate script that gets
+called from rc.local) so it will execute on every boot.
