Hi folks!

As you know, crazii has taken the idea of VSB on a whole new level
by writing a simulation of a Sound Blaster 16 for DOS, which is
able to output the calculated sound on modern HDA sound hardware,
ICH, nForce, SB Live, SB Audigy, VT82C686 or VT8233, -35 or VT8237.

Checking Vogons again, I noticed that there are 2 threads with
a total of 75 pages of posts about SBEMU by now. Development is
really active and there already are 3 forks! SBEMU-X adds support
for some additional sound hardware (in your real computer, not
virtual) and VSBHDA by Japheth fixes compatibility with HX.

I hope the forks will eventually merge, but I guess we should
already add at least one of the versions to our distro. Note
that they all need HDPMI32 and JEMMEX with QPIEMU or QEMM.

All variants together feature quite a few supported sound chips
and sound cards and I am sure they are getting the deserved
attention on Vogons, but I also am sure that they will enjoy
feedback from testers who have one of the lesser tested chips!

Regards, Eric
