I have these lines in /etc/modules, but it does not help: snd-intel8x0 snd_pcm_oss Something else to test? > My solution was to load the module explicitly in /etc/modules, so it > gets loaded before /etc/init.d/alsa-utils is called.

Due to the docs in /etc/init.d/alsa-utils, /etc/rcS.d/S50alsa-utils should be the right choice to restore alsa settings. Do you know how to switch /var/log/boot.log (or similar) on? I definitely do not have the boot messages written into a log file. See this: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4036 Dec 29 2003 boot -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3306 Dec 11 2003 boot.0 It stopped ~Dec 29th 2003. Some experiments with /etc/syslog.conf and local7.* just generated an empty file. Regards, Tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
