Have you looked through your /var/log/messages file? Try grepping for 'rc-scripts' and alsa on your system logfile and see if it turns anything up. Also, just after a fresh boot, you can look at the output from the 'dmesg' command for hints. Permissions shouldn't be an issue if you can run it manually, but it never hurts to check that your /etc/init.d/ script is 755 root:root and that you have a proper link in /etc/runlevels/<runlevel>. > > And in case you're wondering, > yes, I added alsasound to the boot and even default runlevel.

I would imagine that you would want it in the 'default' runlevel rather than boot, but I could be mistaken. --James -- -- -- --This Message Powered by Linux-- --Registered Linux User 227032-- James R.
