On Fri, 31 Aug 2007 the mental interface of Eldon Koyle told:
Package: alsa-base Version: 1.0.14-1 Followup-For: Bug #426759 /etc/init.d/alsa does not support 'start' or 'stop'. I noticed this after running alsaconf which appears to run '/etc/init.d/alsa start'
Please do not use alsaconf. Restart your machine or just do # /etc/init.d/udev restart && udevtrigger alsaconf is buggy as buggy can be and it is not needed in lenny/sid anymore. udev will configure the driver devices. IMHO the only reason to use alsaconf is to configure a 2nd/3rd whatever soundcard which can be done by a small not so overloaded script and faster by hand manipulating /etc/modprobe.d/ entries. Second the old ISA Cards........ I propose to distribute alsaconf in /usr/share/doc/alsa-utils/alsaconf/ and explain user the deprecated use of that script via debconf. Jordi, what do you think?
