Yup, only win98 available. Nice support and closed sources from 
Midiman/mAudio!

Also, I like the nice breakout box. Actually, this card uses the es1968 
interface chip (and is auto-detected as such) but instead of the ac97 codex, 
it has two crystal 4242 chips. There used to be a snd-pdplus for those. I 
looked at the sources and could not really figure out what to do with them, 
assuming simply replacing ac97 calls with crystal ones with code borrowed 
from pdplux would get one set working.
