SBLive 24 bit card?

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings all;

I just brought home a new SBLive 24 bit card, marked SB0410 on the box.

I haven't installed it yet,figuring I'd make sure about the drive4s for 
it and build a kernel with support before diong the install.

The idea is to let the onboard audio be dedicated to Skype etc, while 
system sounds and my ogg collection come out of the new card.

Does anyone know if the emu10k1 drivers in the kernel tree will still 
drive this card like they did my much (>5 years) older SBLive?

Hi,
not sure about your specific model, but you have to figure out what chip is
on the card. If I'm correct, is not emu10k1. The latest relesed update of
alsa-lib contain the new driver for FC4 and FC3.

The Live 24bit is a completely different chip and requires a different 
driver. There is a driver for the card. I bought one about a year ago, 
got it half working under Linux, and in the end returned it. The driver 
may have improved quite a bit since I used it last. So it is probably 
with a try in your case, but I have been buying Audigy2 Value cards 
instead. They are more expensive, but use the emu10k1 driver that has 
been around for years.
