HDA works nicely if it works. If you can test a specific motherboardthat works, and then build a system based on it, great.Envy24 (ICE1712) and Envy24HT(-S) (ICE1724/ICE1721) cards workparticularily well in Linux. Most of them are listed here:http://envy24.svobodno.com/However, note that ALSA unfortunately doesn't support all of them (forexample, Infrasonic Quartet isn't supported, and Maya 44 is supportedonly in Takashi's unstable git tree). Most of them are supported,though. Some newer models also offer extremely high quality DACs andADCs.On the other hand, you have E-mu cards. They aren't fully supported,unfortunately, but they do work in day-to-day usage. They also havehigh quality DACs.However, I'm not sure about gaming cards. Maybe Aureal (:-P) or SBLive! / SB Audigy would qualify here. Somebody else might know thisbetter. 2008/10/30 Edward Terry <eterry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:> I'm starting a business selling Linux-based computers, and I'm looking> for a high-end sound card that works well under Linux.
