in a recent posting, ian anderson suggested that, before kernel

./sound/oss/Kconfig: bool "Obsolete OSS drivers"
./sound/oss/Kconfig: This option enables support for obsolete OSS drivers that
clearly, that was a fairly brainless search, but it still reveals a
pile of stuff that's "obsolete" (whatever that means in the context in
which it's used). so what's really obsolete?
IIRC Adrian Bunk is handling the removal of obsolete OSS drivers and
doing a nice job at it. Dunno about the rest of the stuff.
