If you have the spare PCI slot, yes. I've a nice dual-channel card (lets
you set "esd" or the like to use /dev/dsp1, and all else to use /dev/dsp).
It's some sort of Fortissimo "Crystal Sound Fusion" card. Has optical in &
out and a midi port. Very nice. Alas, no room in my shuttle for it. €15,
and its yours.
