actual disk-checks and boot sequences, and even during the installer
executions, way before any sound drivers are initialized. In both mandrake 9
and knoppix 3.3. I really doubt it had anything to do with a sound utility.
I should have qualified it by saying that it is only for if you are using an
AMD chip though (are you using an AMD chip?)
