I think it does no harm but does not change the end result either. It
creates a new option ("mandrake") but there is no code to handle it so
the if's should just execute the SuSE (default) code as they do now. 

Options:
a) define 'distribution="redhat"' for the mandrake detection code _if_
the oss options erasure for redhat works fine under mandrake (mandrake
users should test this).
b) add another handler for mandrake's modules.conf oss options (should
be written taking into account whatever mandrake uses to configure sound
so that the proper strings are removed from modules.conf).
