  The Live 24bit is a completely different chip and requires a different 
driver. There is a driver for the card. I bought one about a year ago, 
got it half working under Linux, and in the end returned it. The driver 
may have improved quite a bit since I used it last. So it is probably 
with a try in your case, but I have been buying Audigy2 Value cards 
instead. They are more expensive, but use the emu10k1 driver that has 
been around for years.
