Sorry, I didn't realize that my reply didn't go directly to the alsa-user
list.
I would run down to Circuit City, but alas! Shanghai doesn't have one. :)
There is a Best Buy here though. Ha! Pretty nice actually, reminds me of
home a little. It is funny, how they have Walmart and Best Buy and a few
other things we know from home, but they actually aren't set up exactly how
they are Stateside.
I can probable find what you're talking about elsewhere here though (I am
presently working in Shanghai as a translator, but we are from Indiana).
Actually, I still have the USB sound card from TurtleBeach. I haven't tried
it yet with Intrepid, I may give it a whirl. Maybe someday, they'll get my
sound card working correctly. :) That would be nice...
At least my sound coming out of my speakers is pretty nice, and the
headphone jack gives me real nice sound with a decent pair of head phones.
So mostly I'm happy. :)
Thanks again.
Matthew
