NAME
       oss_geode - National Semiconductor Geode audio driver.

DESCRIPTION
       Open Sound System driver for National Semiconductor Geode/CS5530/CS5536 audio controllers.

       Geode device characteristics:

	      o  8/16 bit playback/record

	      o  mono/stereo playback/recording

	      o  8KHz to 48Khz sample rate.

NOTES
       Some  old  Geode  CPUs are not able to handle heavy computational loads.  If your audio streams are use a lot of CPU, you can start getting
       garbled audio since the OSS Sample Rate Convertor is CPU intensive. Setting vmix0-src to OFF will allow you to play audio  but  only  at  a
       fixed rate set via vmixctl (Default: 48Khz).
