Soundblaster X-Fi XtremeMusic?

I need to reinstall windows, starting to really bog down, so I plan on running a dual boot since I'll be reinstalling anyways. I just wanted to know if the audio card I listed above is compatible with any Linux distros. I've also had trouble getting my ATI Radeon 9250 PCI bus to work as well, so if you guys can answer that for me too, that would be great.

The Creative Labs Soundblaster X-Fi does not work in Linux yet. For the ATI Radeon 9250, try using the radeon driver that comes with X Window System or GUI. It will not give you hardware accelleration but it is a good start getting it to work.

A sound card that is better than X-Fi on both sound quality, price, and works in Windows and Linux is Audiotrak Prodigy 7.1LT.
