    The C-Media card should have built-in drivers in Linux, I have a card that uses that same chipset and had no trouble with Ubuntu detecting it. Are you sure it isn't just muted? What exact troubles are you having?

    As for the Riva TNT2, you're going to have to install an old version of the Nvidia driver because the current version does not support legacy devices anymore. I don't remember what version still supported the TNT2, but I'm sure someone else can point you in the right direction.

    I found the nvidia driver in the synaptic package manager and installed it, but when I run PlanetPenguin Racer to check if the driver is working, goes really slow, so I assume its not :P
