Thanks for the responses on getting a soundcard that is supported by
Mandrake. While it can be an irritant, I always find it better to ask on a
list first about hardware issues, because you often get personal responses
about something listed as working, but it turns out that it only works under
specific conditions, or you need PCI cards in a specific order, or you need
to fiddle with this or that before you can get the specific hardware to
work, or an example of what not to try, because of x or y. Unfortunately,
this information is often neglected in compatibility lists.
Cheers,
Brian
