Anythoughts?There are two links to alsa scripts in the /etc/rc2.d dir: alsa and alsasound. Plus the call to alsa-util from /etc/rcS.d makes three.I'm really starting to wonder if all three of these are meant to be called at startup. Thanks, Rick ReynoldsThe following is from /etc/init.d/alsa: # There is no longer any need to run this script on bootup or shutdown. # It must remain in /etc/init.d/ for now, though, because certain # other scripts expect to find it there.
Duh. I could have (and *should* have) seen that. Thanks.
So yes, I would remove the symlinks to it. I don't know about the alsasound script. What package does it belong to?
Interestingly: Tue 12:35pm [/etc/init.d] (547)# dpkg -S alsasound dpkg: *alsasound* not found. Tue 12:36pm [/etc/init.d] (548)# dpkg -S /etc/init.d/alsasound dpkg: /etc/init.d/alsasound not found.maybe it's cruft from something removed. I've removed the symlink to it in rc2.d anyway. Hopefully this will fix the issue. Not able to reboot at the moment to check (system in use here at work), but I will know by tomorrow.
