[newbie] Sound Card recommendation

[Valerie Cheng]

Right now, I use Riptide and there is no driver for linux. I am considering to change 
my sound card. However, I need a PCI 2.2 compliant sound card that is supported by 
linux. All the ones I found are PCI 2.1 compliant. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanx you.
