+The Open Sound System is a set of sound drivers that serve as an alternative
+to the usual ALSA architecture.
+
+Among the benefits are:
+* volume levels being settable for each application individually
+* better latency than ALSA in most cases
+
+If your WM/DE supports tray icons, you will have one for the OSS mixer.
+
+See README.SLACKWARE for post-installation instructions and setup information.
