Well, after Ben bought his Aureal for his Windoze DVD player (which
has since been replaced with a real DVD player, IIRC), I just had to
have this cool new card (relatively new at the time).  I knew it had
Linux drivers so OSS would work.  Imagine my heart break when I heard
that Aureal was filing Chapter 11?!  *sigh*

At the time, I needed drivers for the 2.4 series of kernels, so I dug
around and found a useful site.  It seems that some avid Aureal users
have taken up the flag of supporting the drivers on their own!  I hope
to see these brave souls receive support from Creative in the future:
