Nog meer Linux driver nieuws: GA-Source heeft een Q&A'tje gepost met Scott Draeker van Loki Entertainment, over de ontwikkeling van Linux soundcard drivers:
This is all I can confirm at this time:-We are working on an open source, cross platform sound architecture which will include all the advanced features (e.g. 3D/positional audio, reverb, etc) which Windows games have.
-Creative has committed resources to help us get this project out the door and to ensure that our sound architecture will be supported on their cards under Linux.
-The project will be wide open. Any one will be able to contribute, and we hope to garner widespread hardware support.
It's still very early on here, so people need to be a little patient. That said, I hope to be able to ship all of our Q1 products using the new architecture.
