I got a script from 4front that is supposed to start the sound driver at boot time. I named it oss and put it in /etc/init.d . Then I made a symlink to it in /etc/rc3.d/S99oss . But it doesn't start the driver. Yes, the script is executable and has #!/bin/sh in the first line. I also tried a script that just has the lines
#!/bin/sh soundon in it, because soundon is all it has to execute. It doesn't work either. Below you find the script I got from 4front. Their technical support doesn't know why it doesn't work. But it's specially written for Debian, it's not the one they ship with their driver. I put export OSSLIBDIR="/usr/local/lib/oss" (that's where oss and therefore soundon are) in /etc/profile . Is that correct? It is listed when I type export. I suspect I have to do something else than just put the script and the link in place. But what? Or is there a mistake in the script?
