    5 <para>The first question which people tend to ask about ALSA is why they
    6 should use it over the sound drivers included in the kernel - there are
    7 several reasons.  Firstly, the ALSA drivers support more sound cards
    8 than those in the kernel.  Secondly, the OSS emulation is in some cases
    9 faster and better than the original OSS driver itself.  And finally, there are
    10 some programs which can use ALSA's enhanced features to better drive the
    11 soundcard.</para>
