Try adding alsasound to the default runlevel. And then: /etc/init.d/alsasound start and then /etc/init.d/alsasound save I think it is save. If it pukes, may have to peek into the init script and see what option it is. That should make it survive a reboot. Dale :-) :-) P. S. I found a new sledge hammer.
