I had a different sound issue, where my blacklisted modules where being loaded by 'discover' long before I wanted them to be.
Adding the line 'skip modulename' to /etc/discover.conf was all I needed to get the module to quit loading... For my sound to work I had to actually load it from an init script last (right before kdm). I also call aumix at this time to restore my mixer settings. This might be a solution for you as well... if the same script loaded you sound modules and called aumix on success... I would also check to see if there is a module option you can load the module with that would set your levels.

Now, I established that aumix in fact works, just not early enough. If I set the name of the file under /etc/rd.2/S20aumix to S10aumix, it will load sooner, and the screaming goes away sooner too. It is almost acceptable now. However I would still very much like to know what loads the esssolo1 module. I blacklisted it, and I blacklisted all the other sound related things, snd_es1938. Now, the snd_es1938 wont load, and that is half success. However the esssolo1 loads, even blacklisted. Upon boot, it shows, that essolo1 and e100 (ethernet) are the only two modules that load prior to Hotplug's execution. What on earth loads those two modules? It says "Hardware detection" right before they are loaded. THanks Bence -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
