Aumix not saving settings?

**JockVSJock** · 08-18-2003, 04:17 AM

Whenever I save my settings under Aumix, which controls sound output for my laptop, either at root or as a user, the settings DO NOT save, after I reboot.

Please advise.

thanks

I also read in a post on Debian User that in the package alsa-utils that there is a utility that will keep the sound levels automatically have not tried it so don't know for sure.

When I created a new kernel, I am not getting any sound whatsoever, and now I am getting these errors:

Talked to a few folks in my lug, http://olug.org/

Some claimed that I should use apt-get to reinstall all of the packages.

-Aumix

-Alsa

Does it matter which one goes first?

thanks
