#2 brian hawks 2009-10-28 12:21 Sabayon, Fedora, ubuntu, Mandriva are the ones I have had no issues with. I did notice that on Ubuntu I did have to flip the flag in the sound preferences to digital and that corrected that one… Suse has all kinds of issues with Soundblasters ever since 11.x and stepping through all the fixes online haven't seemed to correct it…
