Quick General questions

Hey guys, just wondered:

1. I have a XtremeMusic Soundcard, what's the deal with drivers on linux?

2. Quite similar to the first question, I have a 8600GT, what's the deal with drivers on linux?

Assuming it's the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic card, Creative don't have any drivers for it and there have been a few moans that it wont detect under linux (no solutions that I can find at the moment)

The 8600GT isn't a problem though. linky (Ubuntu specific as that's what I run)

Not sure if this link will give you it directly but will these work?

Also, what do i do for motherboard drivers or will things like Ethernet automatically be detected?
