OK, here's dmesg with the Vibra16 installed. The sound quality isn't quite
as good as the SB16, but there is no static or other objectionable distortion.
I don't even have xmms installed, but RealPlayer7 is pulling down radio
station WCPE from N.Carolina and the sound is OK.
Looks like I lost my Windoze drive when I changed out the hardware. Not much
of a loss.
