Hi,

I've just got my SB Live! working in mandrake 6.1 (Paul van Dyk is crankin
out right now ;) ).  It doesn't matter which distro you are using though, check
out the article on http://www.linuxnewbie.org and search for Sound Blaster
Live.  There is a good article about how to get the right drivers, set them up
and get the kernel to load them as a module at boot time.

Cheers,
Jason
