Description: Open Sound System (OSS) compatibility package
This package ensures that Open Sound System support is provided in
some way. On Linux, it enables the ALSA compatibility modules. On
other kernels where OSS is the default interface, no action is
taken.
.
The purpose of this package is for applications that only support OSS
to depend on it, hence preventing common "/dev/dsp not found" errors
that would confuse unexperienced users.
.
On Linux platforms a better approach nowadays is to use osspd, which
emulates OSS devices using ALSA or PulseAudio.
