I have tested/developed the ALSA driver on the Pinnacle card - I have such a card so
I can retest and fix the ALSA driver at any moment.

The driver is supposed to handle the Classic model as well but I am not aware anybody tested
the ALSA driver on this model.

IMO, we can remove the OSS driver - one can look into the git to find the old source if needed.

I am looking to people who have the old ISA cards for OSS drivers not converted
into the ALSA. I can convert these drivers if these people are willing to test or donate the
hardware.
