Sure I could but a better question should be do I want to. Sb live/audigy as
stated above are garbage. I cant even remember properly why it was installed
n the system. I have not used sound on it in ages but now that the onboard is
on I find I'm enjoying it. I might add that this is a kt333 chipseted
motherboard and even via does not support the use of sound blaster cards on
there hardware under windows. How much worse do you think it will be under
linux?
I tell you what I'm probably going to be busy for the rest of the day but if
I have the time later tonight I will do the reinstall with that option.
