I recently noticed that arch doesn't seem to use /etc/sysctl.conf (it was 
non-existent on my system). Looking into my /etc/rc.local it reads:

-----------------------
# mplayer needs this
echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq
-----------------------

Wouldn't it be better to change this to:

-----------------------
sysctl -p
-----------------------

and then in /etc/sysctl.conf put:

-----------------------
# mplayer needs this
dev.rtc.max-user-freq = 1024
-----------------------

and use this file for all such kernel parameters?
