In 2007, Creative released a binary driver that did not actually work.
AFAIK no distribution was ever stupid enough to include it.

In 2009, they released an open-source driver that does not support all
hardware features and has not been updated, but which at least works;
it was merged into the kernel.  It's called snd-ctxfi.
