Adding commands to shutdown and reboot

.
I am all out of ideas.

It is my experience that it is default Knoppix LiveUSB-with-persistence behaviour that volume control setting changes, by either of the guis that arise from either right-click or left-click of the panel speaker icon, are retained via persistence on reboot.

lspci | grep audio indicates my audio device is an
Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03).

If you were to make an new KNOPPIX LiveUSB with persistence, made no change in its initial configuration, and if your audio device is like mine, I can see no reason your LiveUSB would act differently than mine.

If your hardware or software configuration differs from mine, then obviously some configuration difference may explain a performance difference. ANY difference in configuration may explain different performance. You are in the best position to know what differences there might be in your configuration and a default Knoppix configuration.

An alsaequal plugin is available via Synaptic, but not installed by default in Knoppix 7.4.

Charles Eidsness has a nice site (C) 2008 at http://www.thedigitalmachine.net/alsaequal.html
He has some helpfpul reference and tutorial material and form with which one may submit comments.

But just after running:

Code:

---

sudo apt-get update

---

I think the fresh install will solve this...

Hey utu I just did a fresh install on knoppix again and guess what? I didn't mess around this time and the volume problem is still there; it just dosen't save it no matter what i do!
I also discovered why the volume plugin on the panel was floating... It was because of a compiz plugin called Place Windows, that i activated, that plugin allows you to always place windows on the center of the screen rather than on the top left hand corner wich really annoys me that why i activated it.
But seriosly now I don't know what to do anymore about this volume thing, I was looking at the lxde autostart commands and I noticed this that comes by default:

Code:

---

@lxpanel --profile LXDE

---

Do you think disabling this will make any difference?

I also found this:Attachment 240
There are two options: Alsamixer and Other do you think changing "Audio Manager" to alsamixer will make a difference

.
I contacted alsaequal's author who noted the following:

Alsaequal may not work with all GUI-based volume controls,
it depends on how they were implemented. (He's) only ever used it
with the alsamixer command line tool.

Don't play with this.

Please start again the alsamixer as within your posting #28 => use F1 to read the "Help" => move through all the controls => if one is red => decrease the value of this control. Exit with [Esc] and save the settings with

Code:

---

su
alsactl store

---

Go to the Menu => Preferences => Default applications for LXSession => Autostart => type "alsactl restore" (without " ") and use the Add-button

Reboot.

I Must be the unluckiest person on earth now the add button on LXSession Autostart tab dosen't work, seriosly i didn't even do anything all the previous installs of knoppix on my flash drive (the same one im using right now) were working fine because I even set up there my keyboard layout, BUT NOW THIS BUTTON DON'T DO ANYTHING, nothing no new commands appear this time i tried adding the keyboard layout and restart the computer and guess it, NOTHING HAPPENS.
Help!?

Did you ever test your RAM with "memtest", your download with "md5sum" and your DVD or USB-stick with "knoppix testcd"?

Well the "knoppix testcd" said "All files are okay..." the memtest im gonna do it tomorrow
But there isn't a text file of the lxsession-default-apps that you can edit adn add the startup commands in it?
