It is inserted into the kernel with a 'soundon' command. I don't recall, having not used that product in several years, but I think it does quite a bit more than just insmod or modprobe. Among other things, I believe it checks to be sure that you're licensed to use the thing. In any case, to run soundon at boottime, I would copy /etc/init.d/skeleton to a new file in that directory (call it sound or OSS or something) and make the changes there. Then 'cd /etc/rc2.d && ln -s ../init.d/sound .' Or read the manpage for 'update-rc.d'. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
