Here are some of the best places to visit to keep up to date with Linux
developments in general:

# this one is exceptionally geeky - highly recommended

I did that for about...2 days. Now I'm 100% Linux powered :-)

Then, use the AWE64. Works really well in both Linux and win98.

It really depends on what you want to do. For me, I don't really miss sound so
much in Linux so I haven't bothered re-installing my AWE64 and taking out the
SBLive! card (for the time being).
If you're not too bothered about no sound in Linux, leave it as it is. The
driver will appear...eventually.
