For a long time it was my mostly read article. Some people theorized
that it is possible to make the soundcard working, but my tests have
concluded
that it is surely impossible without voodoo spells.
Is there any system solution to these kind of things, when the specs are
available,
but nobody cares?
If it's a popular device shouldn't it be possible to organise the programming
equivalent of a "group buy" and get interested users to pay someone who knows
the necessary voodoo to get it working?
It might not be a case of "nobody cares", but that nobody can afford to drop
their paid work for long enough to look at the problem.
