The result of `alsactl init 0' is:
alsactl: unknown command 'init' ...So I simply deleted asound.state and tried to store the alsamixer settings. After a reboot or a shutdown and a boot after, mmh, one hour everything is preserved. But over night PCM is set again up to 100. henry -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
