OK, so I'm new at this whole linux thing (obviously, im at linuxnewbie).

I downloaded some drivers for the Audigy/Live! But they're for Kernel 2.2 (using 2.4, Red Hat 7.1 distro).

So, where could I snag some drivers for my Audigy? And how would I install them?

I was also on the search for Audigy drivers and was given a link to the emu10k1 drivers on sourceforge.org. I havent tried to install them yet as im busy getting the latest Red Hat distro first (mmmm, high speed net connection :D). Here is the link to my post

have a look at http://www.linuxhardware.org
audigy driver available there, but I think its the same as in the sourceforge :)
basically you'll need and should have the kernel source for the driver, it can be 2.2 or 2.4 kernel, which by default located at /usr/src/linux
there 2 or 3 ways how to install the driver I think, read the README or INSTALL file
what I did is compiled and install the driver as separate modules and probe the driver later on
you also need a emu-tools or audigy-tools, its used to enable the digital I/O or the firewire (maybe), if you only use the analog output the drivers itself should be enough :)

good luck
