After searching I've been unable to find any info on soundcards that will work well in linux (work well for remixing rather). Does anyone know of a card that will work well in linux? Also USB is preferred since I may be moving to a labtop soon.

Thanks in advance

A buddy of mine pointed this out to me. 4Front Technologies (http://www.opensound.com/index.html) claims to have a set of drivers that supports a number of audio cards (http://manuals.opensound.com/devlists/Linux.html) under linux. Their "MIDI support not available" warning is kind of suspect but ignoring that, they appear to support the major Sound Blaster cards as well as some M-Audio cards, both of which are decent for remixing. Of those two brands, M-Audio has more USB options, although many of those are only USB 1.1 (if that is a concern to you).
