What Bruce said, but for slightly different reasons. I have an M-Audio
Revolution 7.1 that I had in my old Quicksilver. It worked great in Panther,
but everything went downhill with Tiger. Stuttering and kernel panics were
suddenly all the rage. I finally got fed up with M-Audio's crappy drivers,
and now have an Echo Indigo IO in my dual G5. Don't ask me how I got a
PCMCIA card into a G5 tower. It's a long and harrowing tale. But once I got
it working it was flawless.
