I'm having some strange behaviour with my mixer settings. I'm using gmix under gnome, and have it set to restore mixer settings on startup. This doesn't work - all sound levels are still set to zero. So I added gmix -i to my startup items, and now when I log in, I get an error message saying that either there is no mixer device or I don't have permission to access the mixer device, but I am a member of the audio group. After I've logged in though, I can open gmix and it sets all my levels properly.
Looking at my logs, whenever I open gmix (either manually or upon startup, I get the errors "Can't locate module sound-slot-1" and "Can't locate module sound-service-1-0". As I understand it, these would refer to a second sound card, which I don't have. I suspect that why gmix has trouble setting my levels by itself is that it is looking for this non-existant card. Why would it be doing this? I've never tried to set up a second card. /etc/modules.conf has no reference to more sound devices. Any suggestions? I'm running kernel 2.4.9. My sound card is an es1371, which is compiled into the kernel (not a module). I'm using gmix version 1.2.3 (debian unstable). My sound all works fine, I just have to manually open gmix every time to get my levels set properly! TIA Craig -- Craig Holyoak [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.uq.net.au/craigh/
