I really don't want to start knocking Mandrake at all here as i'm sure they
have plenty enough to do already (!), but i have to admit IF (and only if)
this simple recompile works and doesn't screw anything else up, then yes i
really do agree.
That said i know that nobody in Linux circles is happy with Creative at the
moment on the subject of the SBLive! and lack of willingness to release
technical info on it (without forking out a small. Maybe that may have an
impact.
