Hi everyone,
sorry to bother bout soundcards but I am considering going ahead and buying a new soundcard for my mandrake pc (will use it for my new custom pc and just put old riptide modem back in hp when my new one is finished) and I was reading the official mandrake hardware compatability site and looking at newegg.com and found these inexpensive soundcards, a creative labs sound blaster live 5.1 pci for 22.49 and an aopen cobra aw850 5.1 pci for 12.20 . On the mandrake site it shows a bunch of aw models that are supported (and of course soundblaster is also

)but i'm not sure if mandrake will support the model i get. i'd like to buy the aopen one (limited budget

* booo

*) but i just dont wanna buy it and it won't work under mandrake knowing i could have spent a bit more and gotten a sound blaster live which has/had a greater probability of working under mandrake. What do you all think? Has anyone had success with Aopen soundcards under mandrake? Thanks
