Garin

I have been attempting for the last 2 weeks to get a Sound Blaster Audigy 7.1 24bit card to work. After investigating/researching online i came to the conclusion that the CA0106 driver is the right one for the card.

The card is marked SB0570 and has the CA0106 chip on it.

This card is not listed in the table on the alsa-project website.

Will I be able to get this card working or is it an unsupported card?

Here is some of the information about the card and my system below:

Sound does not work on the system and arts comes up with an error saying that a sound device can not be found on the system.

Please let me know if you need any more information.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks
David
