The Official AC97/Via Onboard Sound Problem Thread Thingie

[Stephen]

Is there anyway to get these modules to stay loaded once I load them up under /etc/init.d?

I can't find where they are at when I check lsmod.

thanks

They are devices that are created once for the sound card they should be available every time you boot (at least that's how it works for me) after you run the auto-config however the configuration of ALSA defaults to mute so you will not hear any sound unless you set the mixer levels on re-boot. Add the line aumix -w 75 -v 75 to the bottom of the file /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh I have also seen a post with the -cd option used which I would presume is for the level for the CD player.
