NAME

ossdetect - Open Sound System audio device detection program.

SYNOPSIS

ossdetect [ -diuv ] [ -m <mode>] [ -L <path>]

DESCRIPTION

The ossdetect 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.

The Input Multiplexer driver (IMUX) is not configured by default and can be added to the OSS configuration using the -i option.

-g<group>

	-u		Adds the oss_userdev driver.
	-v		Verbose output.

-L<path>

Use <path> as root directory for OSS files. Default: Path from /etc/oss.conf, followed by /usr/lib/oss.
