My problem possibly concerns alsasound in /etc/init.d on rh7.2 - it seemingly is working most times as I can get sound - the problem is intermittent and is fixable by running a script. I have read a lot of manuals and stfw. I also seen a similair message on the group last year that went unanwered.
Occasionally I get an error message in kde at startup listing /dev/dsp not loading, and sure enough there is no sound. When this problem occurs I get the following in /var/log/messages: Aug 20 08:37:08 quefaz insmod: insmod: a module named snd-opl3-lib already exists Aug 20 08:37:08 quefaz insmod: insmod: insmod sound-slot-0 failed Aug 20 08:37:09 quefaz insmod: insmod: a module named snd-pcm already exists Aug 20 08:37:09 quefaz insmod: insmod: insmod sound-service-0-3 failed The problem reoccurs on every boot, until I run the following script, and reboot: cat /proc/modules|gawk '/^snd-/{print $1}'|xargs -i rmmod {} No other services in the /etc/init.d directory I am using (cups, gpm, network) are exhibiting this problem. Please advise if there is a step I may have missed during install, or something I can try. I'm running alsa .90 rc2 .
