Re: [linux-audio-user] audiophile 2496 with Fedora Core 3

I would highly recommend using the planetccrma fedora core 3 packages. See http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/ I just started using the Audiophile 2496 along with the onboard sound of my motherboard and the planetccrma kernel and packages work flawlessly. They have a package called envy24control or something like that which works very well with the 2496.

Hope this helps, Alan ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Mossey <mpm(a)alumni.caltech.edu> Date: Saturday, April 16, 2005 11:47 pm Subject: [linux-audio-user] audiophile 2496 with Fedora Core 3 > Hello, > I'm new to the Linux sound world.
