My only problem is that the settings I apply to the Gnome volume control applet don't persist across reboots (although they do across restarts of X).The alsa-utils package provides the script /etc/init.d/alsa-utils for this purpose.
Checking...Yes, that script is there. And it is pointed to by /etc/init.d/rcS.d/S50alsa-utils.
I see that it wants access to -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7668 2006-03-24 06:59 /var/lib/alsa/asound.statewhich is there and rw by root.
Didn't see anything about alsa in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog. I see this in my boot log:Tue Apr 11 07:58:32 2006: Usage: /etc/init.d/alsa {unload|reload|force-unload|force-reload|suspend|resume}
Tue Apr 11 07:58:32 2006: ALSA driver is already running.which indicates that maybe something isn't sending the right parameter to /etc/init.d/alsa, but that isn't alsa-utils so I'm not sure how significant that is.
Not sure what to check next. Thanks, Rick Reynolds --If you have any trouble sounding condescending, find a Unix user to show you how it's done -- Scott Adams
