It worked with my AWE32. It didn't work out of the install directly, I
had to run soundconfig or whatever it is called, and then it worked
fine.
I do agree with your point as to the importance of not breaking
functionality that used to work. I know I had problems with Redhat 6.0
and 6.1 not recognizing a Matrox Millenium card in its install, while it
did in 5.2, which was very frustrating.
