I had one with a similar jack arrangement, and used the leftmost of your unknowns as line out, although amixer calls it rear, I think. The other unknown, your rightmost jack, is a mixed-use jack which I never understood. One of its modes is "digital out" whatever that is, and documentation is very hard to find. But you want to use the jack on the left end, just don't expect it to be called "line out" -- that's too simple Chuck On Tue, May 27, 2008 at 09:53:30PM -0400, Jim Kutsch wrote: > I have an old Sound Blaster Live in my Dell Dimension running Linux Fedora.
