Very Computer

I am planning to buy a Dell Dimension V400c and it comes with the
following sound card:

        Yamaha XG 64V Wavetable Sound

Has anybody got this sound card working under Linux? Is is supported
under Linux? I couldn't find any information about it in the RedHat
Linux Hardware Compatibility list. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

It's not a sound card; it's a chipset built onto the motherboard of the
computer.  (He said after failing to research the issue thoroughly
enough before buying his own Dell with Yamaha XG 64V.)

4Front has a commercial driver ($30 with free upgrades) that works
pretty well.  To the best of my knowledge, there is no free driver
for the chipset.  You can download a trial version of the commercial
driver that lets you test it for 30 minutes at a time from their website
at www.opensound.com.

Feel free to email me if you have more detailed questions.
