Only if the sound card was detected in Linux. Sigh.

What do you mean? NoiseTorch deals with PulseAudio, it doesn't deal with hardware directly, so, yes, Linux needs to have a driver for your soundcard.

I mean, is there a non linux port?

Are you implying I can't do any sound I/O without having a driver for said I/O? Preposterous.

That's trivially correct. You can't get anything on a screen without a driver for your graphics card. You can't get any input from a keyboard without a driver for the keyboard.

However, Linux comes with drivers for more or less every audio interface that is possible to use on Linux. That is, there are essentially no 3rd party drivers - it either works with the drivers in the kernel(1) or it doesn't.

(1) depending on how your distro built the drivers. for the most part, things are OK.
