If you find a way to do this from within gnome, please let me know. I have the same problem. But, here's a workaround. There is a program called 'volume' that can be run at boot time through the module options. I placed the following line in /etc/modutils/arch/i386: post-install sb /bin/volume 10 So my i386 file now looks like this: ... alias midi awe_wave options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 post-install sb /bin/volume 10 ... When this is entered, run update-modules and the modules.conf file will be updated, the lines being added to that file. I just posted the sound module lines here. Your entry may be somewhat different depending on what your loading, of course, but the key command line is the post-install. This runs the volume program after the sound modules are loaded and sets the volume to 10 percent. The volume-2.1.tgz should be attached. There may be other programs that do the same thing, but this worked so I didn't really look any further. -- tony mollica [EMAIL PROTECTED]
