Removing the OSS subtree labeled 'DEPRECATED', and leaving
the OSSEMUL checked, left me with a kernel that couldn't
play my music. (Again, ogg123 and mpg321 thought they were

speakers.) Leaving the deprecated bit in left me with music.
Hrm.

  It's just fascinating to learn about these countries.''
