+README.SLACKWARE for oss 
+
+After installing the package, do the following:
+
+1. Blacklist the alsa modules for your sound card.
+   The output of "lsmod | grep snd" should give you a list of which modules
+   will need to be blacklisted.
+
+2. Make /etc/rc.d/rc.alsa non-executable:  chmod 0644 /etc/rc.d/rc.alsa
+
+3. Make /etc/rc.d/rc.oss executable:  chmod 0755 /etc/rc.d/rc.oss
+
+4. Add this snippet to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+
+   if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.oss ]; then
+     /etc/rc.d/rc.oss start
+   fi
+
+5. Reboot.
+
+6. Test sound to ensure that it works - use "osstest" for this.
+
+7. Configure applications to use OSS instead of ALSA; typically, this will 
+   involve setting the "Sound Command" or some such to use "ossplay"
