Aside from the ALSA drivers - which is the engine by which your card's driver communicates to the system, there are some updated Soundblaster Live! drivers (the emu10k1 set) along with tools/mixers that can be obtained at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1 (I keep typing em101k, but it's emu10k1 - sorry - rather brain dead - but what else can you expect from a 40 year old with two children home for summer holidays?) -- Thu Jan 9 16:25:01 EST 2003 4:25pm up 6:07, 4 users, load average: 0.25, 0.22, 0.27 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ * linux user:267497 * RH 7.3+ * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Good morning, fellow employee.
