Just for the record: In stable we have 1.1.3-1 which doesn't fit to this bug. Debian alsa pkg maintainers won't fix any older version than that. So I close this bug hereby. BTW stable can run sysvinit very well. Elimar -- Never make anything simple and efficient when a way can be found to make it complex and wonderful ;-)
