Well, for starters, are you using the OSS drivers or the ALSA drivers? That's going to make a big difference. In my experience, getting the OSS drivers working with an SB live is very painless, but the ALSA drivers work much better with much better control. If you're currently using OSS, I'd strongly suggest switching to ALSA and then seeing what the situation is like. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
