By the way, the Reloop Digital Jockey 2 Interface Edition is reported to work in Ubuntu 10.10 amd64 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.multimedia.mixxx.devel/3727 -- and previously also working on Ubuntu 9.10 in http://www.digipedia.pl/usenet/thread/15448/754/
Of course, my device is not the IE but the Master Edition. I wonder if the differences are that big as to make it absolutely not working at all in Linux.
The differences I note in the Reloop website are that the Master edition has:
- Flexible input-routing: phono/line inputs can be routed to the software or the master output
- Fully digital mixer: Internal signal processing is constructed digitally
- Symmetrical outputs and additional outputs
whereas the IE does not.

I will try again creating the /etc/udev/rules.d/15-mixxx-usb.rules and see if this yields any significant differences.
The goal now is obviously to understand if Linux supports at all the Master Edition.
I do not know if this will make a lot of sense, but I can also try with a live DVD, such as Ubuntu 12.04 or Mint 13 (based on Ubuntu 12.04) , perhaps first in a VM (VMware or VirtualBox), else directly on my desktop pc. This could be useful only if the issue is not some kind of configuration/permission issue, otherwise I might have the same issue in the other distro.

Any suggestions/advices are most welcome.
