Furthermore, on a similar note, how well is the Soundblaster Live Platinum
edition supported under Linux?  Platinum is their fanciest one, with the
panel controls that go in an external drive bay.

I'd like to upgrade my soundcard to something fairly modern, with as many
features as can possibly be supported under Linux.  If the support is
good, SB Live Platinum would be nice.  But are there better high-end sound
cards for Linux (within a reasonable price range, though, on par with the
SB Live Platinum).

Thanks,
Matt
