How to start OSS/Commercial Automatically + upgrade LD

[Ben Bogart - FMPM/F1999 <bbogart@acs.ryerson.ca>]

Hello all,

I've installed debian and have to say I feel quite a bit more at home 
with Debian than any other Linux system I've used. I am a NetBSD user 
for the mostpart.

I have a few questions, first off how can I run the soundon command to 
start up OSS automatically at bootup? 

Second I'm running a Nvidia GeForce2 MX-400 with linux and am having 
strange crashes (the X server exits with signal 11 I think) anyhow 
according to Nvidia this could be because the linker (ld) is of an old 
version... Can I upgrade my ld to a new version? 

I'm already running kernel 2.4.16 with many of the tools recompiled 
from source (all those suggested by 2.4.16 installation) so ld would 
just be another one.

Thanks all!
Ben
