Going back a few years I digitised a set of LPs using a SoundBlaster 16 card with a consumer Technics turntable, amplified by an ancient Inkel MX-1810 mixer, hooked up to the line-in socket of the SB16 with a 3.5mm jack. Sounded surprisingly good given the bodged setup! Obviously you will get better sound quality with a decent sound card, but depending on your source, you can get away with a cheap sound card. I don't recommend motherboard onboard sound chips though. They usually pick up a lot of digital noise from the computer. At the time I made those recordings, I was a Windows user and would probably have used Steinberg Wavelab. I don't know what I'd use these days under Linux though.
