So, I'm officially sick to death of anything Windows, I go to change the name of the computer as it keeps bitching about the other computer I have having the same name on the same network, and after I change the name and restart it needs to be re-activated...because apparently solving a small problem shook the foundations of the previous activation.
So, I'm hear to ask anyone who uses Linux how it works: Does Creative support Linux with any of their soundcards, preferably the Audigy 2 ZS? I used Yellowdog for a short period of time on the PS3 and while I didn't have any problems with it...it was a bit open command for my tastes. Not that I have a problem with it at all...but if I need to get used to it on a long-term basis I'd love to know. I can see ATI supports it with only the drivers but without Catalyst, perhaps I'll use Overdrive or any other compatible OC software...tips on that would also be appreciated. All in all, what's the overall experience - does it require activation of any kind? How good is the UI? I understand that each version of Linux is different in some capacity than the next, which would be a good version to start with?
Basically, anything else you remember that I should/want to know as I can't think of anything else at the moment.
Thanks, again.
