Hi, I see on the soundcard matrix that a couple of EMU cards have been added since I last looked. Unfortunately, I have an EMU-0404 and that's not on their. lspci says my card is "Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 03)". A friend who is good at linux told me I may be able to use a general SB driver such as emu10k1, and indeed, alsaconf tries to use that. However, things are still failing. I heard that you are working on support for EMU cards, and that sounds great, but is this true? I really want to use Linux as my main OS, but it's not worth it to me unless I can get high quality sound working and I don't feel like buying the EMU-1212 or other card for this purpose. I don't know for sure if it's my configuration or just that it's impossible for this card to work now, so if I can get it to work that'd be great. I downloaded the alsa drivers and disabled alsa in the kernel, did alsaconf, and here's what I got for my /etc/modules.d/alsa: alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss # Set this to the correct number of cards. # --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- # --- ALSACONF version 1.0.13 --- alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 alias sound-slot-0 snd-emu10k1 # --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- And here's the relevant part of dmesg: ALSA /var/tmp/portage/alsa-driver-1.0.13/work/alsa-driver-1.0.13/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c:2037: AC'97 0 does not respond - RESET ALSA /var/tmp/portage/alsa-driver-1.0.13/work/alsa-driver-1.0.13/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c:2046: AC'97 0 access is not valid [0x0], removing mixer.
