Re: Good linux compatible sound card

I am looking for a great sounding card.

I realized I was missing something with my current cards (All old
soundblasters) when I bought a new Compaq Presario (For my kid at
college) and ran an mp3 on it through some bad speakers. The sound was
much better than I am getting currently.

In all honesty, I haven't come across a sound card/chip that I couldn't
get to work with linux, either via OSS or ALSA. In my humble opinion,
however, I would recommend a sound blaster PCI Value card or any of the
ESS cards. In my experience, the cards that sport the Crystal chips sound
the worst. But they do work, none the less.

Cheers.

Re: Good linux compatible sound card

2002-03-17 Thread Glenn Williams

Hi, Joel:

I recommend the current Yamaha models, although mine are older.  I have
two of them in service here; a DSXG and an OPL3-SAx, and they both play
like Wurlitzers.  I guess your scope of usage would be a factor, too -
but these work for me, and are recommended by manufacturers of voice
recognition software (which I also use).

HTH

Regards,

Glenn

ESS is a good card except if you're trying to run the Mandrake 8.2 beta
4. The card uses the es1371 sound module and Mandrake admits that es1371
doesn't work in the beta 4 version, but that's only on the beta 4
version. Beta 3 works ok, and Mandrake is aware of the bug and will
probably have it fixed before they release 8.2
