If you first boot into DOS, then use LOADLIN to boot Linux, you'll probably
be able to get the card to work in SB-compatibility mode. This will allow
the DOS helper stuff to get loaded and put the card into the right mode.
It worked for me a while back when I was fighting a Diamond Sonic Impact S70
card. I've since sold it and moved to something better supported under
Linux. If they don't want to share the programming info, I don't want to
share my money!
