OK - i did a patch for it, know you are all capable of doing this
yourself but patches seem to encourage results. I put it straight after
the procfs is mounted, that is the earliest it can be done. Sure there
of plenty of reasons why it should be later so you best let me know what
they are.

This does seem pretty fair to me, I don’t see why rc.sysinit can't do a
sysctl -p if /etc/sysctl.conf exists - then just need to an instruction to
the mplayer.install to tell you to make sysctl.conf and add the command -
everybody is happy then!

However, why is an mplayer setting in rc.sysinit? I don't use mplayer,
my server doesn't use mplayer - so why do they have this setting?
Same thing: why is stuff about console fonts there?
_My_ server does not have a screen! What's the difference?
Anyway, we are talking mainly about "sysctl -p" belonging there.
And that's a very flexible thing; the mplayer line _could_ then be
added to /etc/sysctl.conf (and I advocate this, but that is out
of rc.sysinit) - or not.
Kind regards,
Leslie
