The new SoundBlaster Live! driver works well on kernel 2.2.5-15 which came with RH6.0, however the midi is still conspicuous by its absence. :-( It's supposed to be there but I cannot get a .mid file to play. I expect I have to compile some support for midi in the kernel or something but to be honest I can't really be arsed as long as I can play mp3s while I'm working I'm happy. Still 4 speaker surround would have been nice and a release of the source would have been even nicer. I s'pose it's to be expected, brilliant sound card Creative Labs - shit manufacture support.
Mind you if anybody does know how to get midi working I'd be grateful...
Cheers,
BJ

I know some of you will be interested:
Quote from Linux Today: "A new Soundblaster Live! has been released, which actually works great
on
kernel 2.2.10."
That, of course, being the driver.
