New description: For running alsaconf You need to compile whiptail or dialog before. That's not in the book. Comment: mat_jack1: what is your sound card? Running alsaconf is always a bad idea with udev, especially with more than one sound card. Alsaconf only does the following things: * Creates aliases in /etc/modprobe.conf, but, as explained in LFS, aliases never work with udev due to a chicken-and-egg problem, and udev should be able to load sound modules even without aliases in modprobe.conf. * Unmutes audio, but you should know how to do this yourself. In addition, it teaches you nothing in terms of creating a working setup. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/1342#comment:4> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
