Valera, Please do the following: $ runlevel N 2 is returned on my System, meaning that during bootup the instructions in /etc/rc2.d/ are used to setup the Ubuntu session. There is a file S50pulseaudio within /etc/rc2.d/ and its "twin" /etc/rc3.d/ which is used to setup audio function. We want to delete the one in /etc/rc3.d/ which is not used during runlevel 2. Do this with: $ ls /etc/rc3.d/ S50pulseaudio /etc/rc3.d/ S50pulseaudio which merely reports it is there. Then delete it with: $ sudo rm /etc/rc3.d/S50pulseaudio and check with: $ ls /etc/rc3.d/S50pulseaudio ls: cannot access /etc/rc3.d/S50pulseaudio: No such file or directory Reboot. But from the startup Grub menu, use the Recovery option, which corresponds to runlevel 1 /etc/rc1.d/ instructions After a while a Menu will come up with several options. You can choose between them by using the up/down arrows and TAB. The choice you want is the last one, the "COMMAND SHELL" At that Command prompt run: # telinit 3 this will run the instructions from /etc/rc3.d/ from which S50pulseaudio has previously been deleted. So all of the above has merely been to achieve a bootup without audio support. Now once more run the: $ sudo agrsm-test and report back whether the included wvdialconf test succeeds or fails.
