Adding commands to shutdown and reboot

[jvfc678]

i actually installed it on my pen-drive(no persistence i really installed it) and it saves my files and changes on exit

Greetings again, jvfc678.

It's not clear to me what you have for a system.

From another thread it seems you didn't set up via a flash-knoppix approach,
and beyond that it's not clear just how you set up Knoppix.
Whatever your system is, it does appear NOT to save changed audio settings.
This is hard to understand if indeed other changes are saved.

I think the experts (I'm not one) might start with asking you to tell us
what you get with the command

df -kTh

so the main elements of your install become apparent.

If your 'install' is one like a poor-man's install, these begin with a
wholesale resurrection of the LiveDVD image, which will overwrite anything
in its memory space. It takes a persistence file to re-create any changes
in this instance. This case would behave exactly the same as operating with
a LivedVD; that is, no changes get saved (or they are wiped out on re-boot).

My system is a LiveUSB on an SDHC card, set up with reiserfs persistence
using flash Knoppix. I don't have your problem. I can't help thinking you
might find it easier just to go back and make a flash-knoppix LiveUSB with
persistence rather than try to get to the bottom of the current symptoms you describe.

What i did was get my brothers pen-drive, put knoppix on there.
then i formatted MY pen-drive, clicked on lxde menu>>knoppix>>install to a flash disk and choose MY drive
I also have a windows harddisk and a files harddisk

That looks pretty good to me.
You've got persistence & it's saving stuff.
How about your audo stuff. is that behaving now?

In the future, you may want to leave a little more space for /mnt-system.
(Just use a litlle less persistence, so if you want to save something more on fat32, you can.)

One thing i noticed when i played music (in chrome for example) i looked up on alsamixer and more controls appeared, after that i ran

sudo alsactl store

Im gonna reboot the computer and see what happens

1. How do you change audio volume settings?
2. How do you save volume settings if changed?

In addition to /etc/rc.local,
I use the alsamixer gui that comes up using alsamixer in a terminal window, to observe,
set and record most alsamixer settings. See the attached png.
This gui shows graphically all the audio settings.

I use the volume control applet on the lxpanel to change and/or mute the volume control.

to change volume i just mess around with the LXDE pluginvolume.png

I have no experience with the png you show for a Volume Control applet.

The one I use is the standard lxpanel applet supplied with Knoppix.
If missing, thie applet I use may be added with
Right Click lxpanel>Add/Remove Panel Items>Panel Applets>Volume Control>Add

You might try that.
