Well, that wasn't /too/ bad... got a new utility out of the exercise, too, thank you! I've now got upx installed so was able to upx -> unrar -> .pdf here. The way I'm interpreting the documentation is the mainboard defaults to the on-board AC'97 sound system *unless* you install software to activate the installed-in-parallel on-board C-Media CM7838 sound chip... in essence the added software 'switches on' and allows you to manage the chip. There appears to be a healthy install base and active user community here (primarily for Vista related bugs... hehe): http://www.cmedia.com/forums/ The company says it supports "open source drivers" but I didn't drill down to confirm. They do, however, link to http://www.alsa-project.org/ At first glance, it wouldn't surprise me if it allowed full software configuration vis a vis 2/4/6 channels and what inputs or outputs are actually made available at the 'line in' and 'line out' jacks.
