Log: |

remove more alsa-driver cruft, leaving only the section on switching from alsa-driver to in-kernel, since alsa-driver is masked for removal from Portage |

-Historically, Gentoo offered two ways to get ALSA up and running: the |
| 67 |
-<e>in-kernel</e> driver and the external <c>alsa-driver</c> package. The two |
| 68 |
-solutions essentially do the same thing; this made supporting the external |
| 69 |
-package extremely difficult and time-consuming. The Gentoo maintainers decided |
| 70 |
-to discontinue support for the <c>alsa-driver</c> package, concentrating their |
| 71 |
-resources on the ALSA drivers available within the Linux kernel. This guide will |
| 72 |
-focus solely on configuring ALSA via the in-kernel driver. |

-link="alsa-bugs@g.o">Gentoo ALSA maintainers</mail> with why the |
| 78 |
-in-kernel drivers don't work for you. Be sure to include detailed error logs. |
