Please note that the SoundBlaster Live 5.1 shipped with Dell Dimension
8200 is NOT supported. They have PCI ID 1102:0006.
http://opensource.creative.com/:
"The Dell CT0200 -- The new Live 5.1 card from Dell (CT0200) is not
based on the EMU10K1 chip, so the EMU10K1 driver available at
SourceForge won't work with it."
I really think this fact should be listed in the Supported Cards
List - making people aware of the fact that Dell machines and OEM
Creative cards very well might be a waste of money.
AFAIK, the only way to make this card produce sound on Linux is to
buy the BETA binary-only drivers from 4Front at a mere US $35 per
seat (and I'm stuck with 40 of these that I really needed
sound support on)...
当然,这是在2003年,后来我试着重编译最新的alsa(在linux下显示应该使用驱动emu10k1x),不过最后alsaconf和alsamixer没有找到声卡,因为甚至在creative的主页上也没有看到sound blaster 5.1这样的型号,所以干脆换了个live!.所以没有继续做实验(时间有限,所以只用了几十分钟试着驱动之前的声卡。如果哪位刚好是这个卡,有兴趣可以试一下,下面是链接地址:

4 个人习惯在init 3下执行X & xterm -display localhost:0.0 &
然后在xterm下执行quake3 &来玩q3,为的是节约些资源和避免其他窗口管理器可能带来的问题。
