Hello all...
The FHF has struck again...
Someone has dropped off a sound blaster card on my desk, and I'm about
to install it in my debian box. It is an original Creative labs Sound
blaster. oh yeah - speakers and a microphone also.
------
The problem is: (my ignorance)
I have never used any type of sound card in any type of machine
and/or operating system. (winblowz, slackware, debian...)
So... I could use some guidance as to how to configure and test
it. In addition I would like to know what my software options are when
it comes to using it with the debian OS. Pardon my ignorance I just
have no clue what this thing-a-ma-bob is good for. Maybe an X11 gui
cdrom player ??? i dunno...
Oh yeah - actually the Free Hardware Fairy gave me two sound cards.
The other one is a Gravis Ultra Sound - it's neat, the circuit board
is red!
Based on the color (or technology) of the card, should I consider
using the Gravis U.S. instead of the Sound bastard???
Thanx in advance ...
Any help is greatly appreciated.
