Recently I upgraded my soundcard to a |Awe64, last I knew this wasn't working with 2.2.5, is this still true? You should be able to, though not out-of-the-box. Of course, AWE64s unfortunately are all Plug-n-Pray jobs AFAIK, and there's no checked-in PnP code in 2.2.5 AFAIK (will be in 2.2.6), so you'll need to install Luigi's PnP package to get the card initied so the sounds drivers will use it. See Conrad's PnP tips for the AWE/SB32 on http://multiverse.com/~rhh/awedrv for details. Conrad has a AWE64 BTW. This'll get you the SB, SB16, and OPL parts of the card working with the checked-in drivers. If you then also want to use the EMU-8000 side of the card (wavetable synth) for cool MIDIs, wavetable Doom music, etc., then install the newer AWEDRV sound driver linked off the URL above.
