Do you have the name/names of manufacturers that use Crystal > CS4236/4237,OPTI931 or SB16 Vibra16 chipsets? We have been using Gravis > soundcards but recently they have stopped manufacturing. Vibra16 obviously used in CreativeLabs cards. Beware though: the latest Vibra16X are not compatible with the FreeBSD drivers which work with the old Vibra16C -- at least for full duplex. I think there are some Vibra16X clones made by Avance Asound (see www.realtek.com.tw). AOpen manufactures nice cards based on the CS4237 -- look for the AW35 product (I think the AW32, based on the CS4236, is discontinued). The OPTI931 is used on many no-name cards -- mine are marked ExpertColor but I guess that's the name used for Europe...
