I have a highly customized install of Wheezy 64-bit -- No desktop environment. Just Openbox WM, LXPanel and Debian Menu. Could never get pulseaudio to load on start up. Had to do it manually in user mode after I got to the GUI. Got errors/failure if I loaded it as root or as a daemon. Finally gave up trying to fix it. Purged it totally off the system, manually deleted any remaining configs, rebooted, then reinstalled. And its been working fine ever since. Loads automatically when X starts now. I boot to a terminal, then run startx. B -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
