Sorry for the late reply. Well, currently I'm developping and production
both in Linux SuSE 10.0. But the machine for developping and production
are not the same. For developping, I used a Pentium 4 PC with Soundblaster
soundcard. While in the production it's an Embedded Epia Mini ITX ML
series with VIA VT1616 6 channel AC' 97 codec.

Thanks.

Fare thee well,
