Hey everybody, I'm new to this group so I'll quickly introduce myself. I
just moved to the North York area, been using linux for probably around 4
years, currently running Gentoo on my laptop and an old desktop server.

Anyways, I want to connect my notebook to my digital reciever through an
optical cable (with the potential to get 5.1 surrond sound). Any
recommendations in a USB or PCMCIA device (preferably USB) that will work in
Linux/Windows?

So far the only thing I've found is couple of devices from Creative. But I'm
not sure if I need something as complicated as that, plus it doesn't seem
like stores carry it here. Any recommendations?
