I don't want you to think that I'm some sort of cheap nitpicker, but
there are actually other sound drivers too. For instance the ultra
sound project comes to mind. I have a linux machine with an ultra
sound card using the ultra sound project drivers. This driver, which
is compiled as a module is installed in /usr/local/etc/gus.o the
default. It also is capable of emulating the OSS driver too.

I think that there will be a lot of very grateful people if you could
include checks such as,

if [ -r /usr/local/etc/gus.o ]; then
  with_sound="native"
fi

Thank you very much in advance.

PS. Anyone know of any other special drivers?
