Creative releases proprietary Linux X-FI drivers

ichwillauchwassagen writes: Creative Technology has finally released a (proprietary) Linux driver for a rather widespread piece of PC hardware: their X-FI series of soundcards. As Creative failed to work together with the ALSA team in this issue, these cards were useless for Linux users so far. The X-FI was releaed more than 2 years ago. These drivers have been announced for some time now but seem to have been delayed due to the efforts invested in Vista support. The driver is in beta stage and currently 64-bit only.
