[newbie] Trying to automate aumix -L
I want my sound levels adjusted on bootup with the aumix -L command. From what I've seen it should go in the rc.local file but when I put it there nothing happens. Is there a special syntax or something more required than aumix -L ? Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

If I do that I can't even get the Access Configuration error - maybe because it doesn't know about port 3128? Is this supposed to work without configuring it as a proxy?

Re: [newbie] Trying to automate aumix
That works when anybody logs in but is there a way to have it set before anybody logs in?
