.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBossdetect\fP application performs automatic detection of soundcards.
The application looks at the $OSSETCDIR/device.list and performs
automatic detection. It will create a file with the list of the configured
drivers in $OSSETCDIR/installed_drivers.
OSSETCDIR is decided by reading /etc/oss.conf, and defaults to /etc/oss4.

can be added to the OSS configuration using the \fB-i\fP option.
