I do hope you know that the Aureal 8830 card works wonderfully under linux
if you install the right drivers for it. http://linux.a3d.com I believe it
almost sounds better under linux than it does in Windows. ;) Incidently the
card I tested this on was a Diamond MX300 but it should should with any
Aureal 8830, 8820, 8810 card. Make sure you read the install instructions
base on which chipset your card has... And I'm not so lazy that I can't type
"make install" to install a sound card. Beats the heck out of the things you
used to have to do in DOS! hehe
