[TriLUG] Good Linux compatible sound card?

[Ken Mink]

I'll have to second that vote for SB Live!. I've had one that has
chugged along through three motherboard/cpu combos. I have been very
happy with the card. The linux support is also very good. I don't see
any reason I would get a new sound card. But that's me.

They've been opensourcing their code for quite a while now.

Just my $.02,
Ken
