I have been researching interfaces that work in linux. I tried the duet because i had access to it. I should have realized at the start that the prob was that the usb bus is not supplying power to the device. when you plug it in, the apogee logo lights up, but thats it. the unit is not actually powered up. it sends a signal to the pc, which lets jack and alsa recognize it. but no signal is sent back to the device, which means there is not driver support for it. Before i actually buy an interface, I'll make sure that it has linux support. Sorry i wasted everyone's time, but i want to thank everyone for their help.
