I built the KT400 Platinum version of this for my pianist this summer with 
redhat 9.  Everything works.  I didn't test the NIC as he doesn't have a 
network, but it should be either VIA or Realtek, both of which work fine in 
Linux.

KT600 isn't really that different from KT400 so I doubt you'd have problems 
there, and it would either be CMI sound or VIA sound, both of which are great 
(hopefully CMI- the KT400 one had CMI and I personally liked it better than 
an Audigy).

It worked fine then with whatever was considered stable.  He doesn't do 
non-binary updates- he gets extremely confused by the command line- so it 
should still be on the same kernel as it was on back then.
