That would certainly be convenient.   :(  I had an issue as well with a softmodem's drivers that wouldn't compile with gcc version 3.x compiler.   :rolleyes:

yeah, by denying you the source code so you couldn't recompile if you wanted to. of course this only becomes an issue when something fails to work, which according to you is a rare occurence in mswindows, something i am very loath to believe is true.

Actually, I can't install XP with my Visiontek Geforce2. I have to kidnap a video card from somewhere elso, and then install the geforce after XP is installed.

Don't worry. That one is definitely compatible. You don't even have to do anything, I believe, to set it up.

That soundcard should be picked up andsetup automatically
for oyu, depending on which distro you are using.
Worst case scenario is that it isn't, in this
you would need to manually load the driver with
'modprobe emu10k1' as root and set your mixer levls with
kmix of something of that ilk.

But I think you are using RH9? so it should be
a smooth automatic process.
