My kernel build was the culprit "make-kpkg -config menu -rev Custom.0 kernel-image modules"
Seem the alsa-modules.deb file and the generated /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9 had the default sound card and not my "snd-maestro3" What can I do with the kernel build stuff so that I do not have to remember to tweak the sound card in the config file? thanks On Fri, 6 Sep 2002, Nyk Tarr wrote: > On Thu, Sep 05, 2002 at 08:58:46AM -0700, ThomasRatliffDDS wrote: > > > > > > > On Thu, Sep 05, 2002 at 12:14:21AM -0700, ThomasRatliffDDS wrote: > > > > Every time I boot up this machine the volume (and some other parameters) > > > > in aumix or alsamixer is reset to 0. > > > > > > > > My ~/.aumixerc and the system /etc/aumixer have reasonable defaults and > > > > sound works after I reset the volume. > > > > > > > > Where do I go to troubleshoot this? > > > > > > Make sure the file is called ~/.aumixrc (just in case the files are > > > named exactly as in your message). > > > > > > > Yeah I just forgot the exact file spelling but they are /etc/aumixrc and > > ~/.aumixrc. > > > > As a follow up, I had alsa running on a stock 2.4.18-686 install. aumix > > settings were appropriately carried over reboots.
