Try adding alsasound to the default runlevel. And then: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
/etc/init.d/alsasound start |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
and then |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
/etc/init.d/alsasound save |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
I think it is save. If it pukes, may have to peek into the init script |
| 31 |
and see what option it is. That should make it survive a reboot. |

P. S. I found a new sledge hammer. Is this being sent as plain text |

only? No HTML at all? |
