Thank you for the care, Patrick I am sorry, but I cannot give much help here :-( .

What I understand is that using YAST to configure your sound-card works for you. You restart a daemon from YAST. All is OK. But after a reboot that does not work.

What I would try is to figure out what the daemon is called. How I do not know. But maybe a 'ps -aef > /tmp/filename1' and a 'ps -aef > /tmp/filename 2' after the sound workes , a diff on the filenames could help to identify it. Or the same with lsmod.

Maybe then rcxxx restart (where xxx is the name of the daemon helps.

If that woud help, the insserv xxx can be used to start the server.

Or YAST/SYSTEM/RUNLEVEL editor can be checked.

For info: My system is:

:/etc # uname -a Linux xxxxxx 2.6.16.13-4-default #1 Wed May 3 04:53:23 UTC 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Concerning sound

/etc # lsmod | grep snd snd_pcm_oss 49024 0 snd_mixer_oss 18304 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_via82xx 29992 0 gameport 16144 1 snd_via82xx snd_ac97_codec 102232 1 snd_via82xx snd_ac97_bus 2816 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm 97292 3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_via82xx,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 24968 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 10640 2 snd_via82xx,snd_pcm snd_mpu401_uart 8064 1 snd_via82xx snd_rawmidi 27776 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 9360 1 snd_rawmidi snd 65192 9 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss, snd_via82xx,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm, snd_timer, snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi, snd_seq_device soundcore 10656 1 snd

and with the hwinfo I see VIA 82xx Audio: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.5 VIA 82xx Audio: /module/snd_via82xx VIA_IDE: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0f.1 VIA_IDE: /module/via82cxxx

(nicely presented by YAST/HARDWARE/HARDWARE-INFORMATION (or so)

I hope somehow the mixer will work again

Hi Hugo, hi everybody, Thank you for your response. First my system: patrick:~ # uname -a Linux patrick 2.6.13-15.10-default #1 Fri May 12 16:13:03 UTC 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Following are parts of the results. I made files named "a_xxxxx_notOK.txt" and "a_xxxxx_OK.txt", one beeing built after reboot (with sound not working) and the other after having set the sound with help of Yast. The a_Hard_info_x.txt is stored by Yast, getting info on harware. These 2 files are somme 200ko. About Audio device, the results are the same before and after : patrick:~ # cat a_Hard_info_notOK.txt | grep Audio (or) patrick:~ # cat a_Hard_info_OK.txt | grep Audio info.product = 'M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device' pci.product = 'M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device' Model: "ASRock In M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device" Device: pci 0x5455 "M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device" But "grepping" with "Sound", the results are quiete different: patrick:~ # cat -n a_Hard_info_notOK.txt | grep sound 630 resmgr.class = 'sound' 633 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 641 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/timer' 647 resmgr.class = 'sound' 650 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 658 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/seq' 3721 P: /class/sound/seq 3724 P: /class/sound/timer 3809 /class/sound/seq 3811 /class/sound/timer 3975 soundcore 11808 1 snd, Live 0xffffffff88119000 4305 Hardware Class: sound patrick:~ # cat -n a_Hard_info_OK.txt | grep sound 17 resmgr.class = 'sound' 20 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 33 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/adsp' 39 resmgr.class = 'sound' 42 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 55 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/audio' 61 resmgr.class = 'sound' 64 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 77 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/dsp' 83 resmgr.class = 'sound' 86 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 98 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/mixer' 104 resmgr.class = 'sound' 107 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 118 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/controlC0' 124 resmgr.class = 'sound' 127 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 135 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/seq' 141 resmgr.class = 'sound' 144 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 157 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0c' 163 resmgr.class = 'sound' 166 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 179 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p' 185 resmgr.class = 'sound' 188 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 201 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/pcmC0D1c' 207 resmgr.class = 'sound' 210 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 223 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/pcmC0D2c' 229 resmgr.class = 'sound' 232 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 245 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/pcmC0D2p' 251 resmgr.class = 'sound' 254 linux.subsystem = 'sound' 262 linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/sound/timer' 3945 P: /class/sound/controlC0 3948 P: /class/sound/pcmC0D0c 3951 P: /class/sound/pcmC0D0p 3954 P: /class/sound/pcmC0D1c 3957 P: /class/sound/pcmC0D2c 3960 P: /class/sound/pcmC0D2p 3963 P: /class/sound/seq 3966 P: /class/sound/timer 4051 /class/sound/controlC0 4053 /class/sound/pcmC0D0c 4055 /class/sound/pcmC0D0p 4057 /class/sound/pcmC0D1c 4059 /class/sound/pcmC0D2c 4061 /class/sound/pcmC0D2p 4063 /class/sound/seq 4065 /class/sound/timer 4223 soundcore 11808 1 snd, Live 0xffffffff8812d000 4559 Hardware Class: sound About the "lsmod" command: patrick:~ # cat a_lsmod-grep_snd_notOK.txt snd_pcm_oss 70432 0 snd_mixer_oss 22144 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_seq 68824 0 snd_ens1370 22400 0 gameport 17808 1 snd_ens1370 snd_rawmidi 31904 1 snd_ens1370 snd_seq_device 11024 2 snd_seq,snd_rawmidi snd_pcm 117260 2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_ens1370 snd_timer 29320 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 13200 2 snd_ens1370,snd_pcm snd_ak4531_codec 11264 1 snd_ens1370 snd 77600 9 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq, snd_ens1370,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device, snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_ak4531_codec soundcore 11808 1 snd patrick:~ # cat a_lsmod-grep_snd_OK.txt snd_pcm_oss 70432 0 snd_mixer_oss 22144 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_seq 68824 0 snd_seq_device 11024 1 snd_seq snd_intel8x0 40096 1 snd_ac97_codec 117188 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus 3328 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm 117260 3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 29320 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd 77600 10 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq, snd_seq_device,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec, snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 13200 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm soundcore 11808 1 snd There is no difference betwin a_ps-aef_OK.txt and a_ps-aef_notOK.txt exepted the last process displayed (of course!). It is a pity that I can not find my self the reason why it is so. If someone can see / guess, what appens, reading these results, I am ready to make other tests... My belive is that there is a configuration file somewhere that is wrong. But I dont no where I could find it. The sound system appears so complicated to me. Thank you for the attention paid to this mail, Patrick
