I don't really think there IS a problem with the AWE64 drivers for
Linux.  I assume the sound is just a Mandrake (or RH?) thing for all
soundcards, and the volume control issue is one of config files that
are user-specific, as Unix is supposed to be.  So, IMHO, neither is a
problem, just something to watch.  I'd like to kill that bootup sound,
but I only reboot about once a week (gotta play games in Windows), so
it's not a big deal.
