3 requiremnts
1. works in ubuntu
2. has optical spdif out to external av receiver
3. 7.1 audio
I just can't decide plus I'm completely clueless what works in ubuntu
only nice thing about windows is not worrying about compatibility
i also have another question
is this even possible
for example, my mobo has 7.1 audio but if you connect though the coax spdif rather than analog connections, it only supplies 5.1 audio, at least that's what it says in the manual
i was looking at the bluegears xmystique 7.1
i just don't know
if it's compatible
if you get 7.1 though the optical connection
