Well, when I had a 486, my ensoniq soundscape worked OK. I recently upgraded to an intel TX chipset based motherboard, and I couldn't get the soundcard to work at all. I installed the OSS sound driver (it's not kernel based; it actually requires that you have no sound driver in your kernel). The sound card works great with OSS. Unfortunately, OSS is commercial, so you must pay $20 for the full license. I'm not sure of the exact URL that will give you info on OSS. Try an alta vista search for "OSS/Linux" or something like that (I think that's the official name of the thing). Don't confuse it with OSS/Free, which is the normal kernel based sound driver.
