So do not buy the X-Fi for use underLinux. The others are probably generic cards. More important than thename of the card is the audio chip on the card. That will determinewhether the card is supported by an alsa driver. That list is here,though I am not sure if this is complete.http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php?vendor=All#matrix I tried to look at the website to see if I could find any of the chips,but my page translation program didn't work well for some reason. -------------------------------------------------------------------------This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 ExpressDownload DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and takecontrol of your XML.
