Does anyone know if the Juli@ works on the new-ish arm boards that have SATA and PCIe slots?

Hi Shadow_7. I'm not sure of this, but I supose it should work. The Juli@ eXT uses ALSA on Linux, so as long as the distro you are using has ALSA drivers installed, it should work. At least in my case it was "plug and play"; I didn't install anything extra for it to work.

What's the vender:device from "lspci -n" for the device. So I can examine the alsa code base. Sometimes drivers contain assembly code which is platform specific, and that could be an issue, if it exists for that card. When it does exist, it normally uses the device ID to trigger that section of code.

Oh, I didn't know that :) . Well, lspci gives this for the card:

Code: Select all

05:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. VT1720/24 [Envy24PT/HT] PCI Multi-Channel Audio Controller (rev 01)
lspci -n gives this:

Code: Select all

05:00.0 0401: 1412:1724 (rev 01)

I use an older sound blaster audigy card. It dose a better job than the onboard sound.

Thanks. I already got the Juli@ eXT, but just out of curiosity: Does this model work with ALSA? I don't see it on the list.

It uses the same the same hardware configuration as Audigy 4. This one is Audigy 5
