I had this very same problem after installing planet ccrma on my > FC1 until I found out I had skipped the chkconfig part of the install. Stuff was upgrade-installed by apt-get Debian package utilty. Offers choice of overwriting or keeping configs. I have no chkconfig. Two problems: 1. The original script used a syntax msg( alsactl restore ....). This does not to anything. 2.
