X-Fi Driver is now OpenSource
In June 2006, Creative Labs was reported developing linux support of X-Fi driver and it was released in the second quarter of 2007. They admitted of neglecting linux drivers due to vista's and therefore the planned support for ALSA and OpenAL 1.1 could not be added. In Last months of 2007 at last Creative labs released a binary only linux driver which was 64-bit supported only.
Long list of developments but the interesting news is that they have opensourced the (about) 13000 lines code of their driver.
