Sound Problems in Puppy Linux
HooRahhhh the Panasonic CF-25 TOUGHBOOK lives! Big ups to grapefruitgirl girl for the help and replies. I ended up going back to puppy linux with the toughbook after trying everything from DeliLinux to a SIX disc download of slackware, mostly because it was the only one that would find the sound card through the alsa wizard. (i DLed alsa wizard to damn small linux, it looked exactly the same and wouldn't find the soundcard and i tried several releases) The funny thing was that Puppy's Dingo release ran like a dog so out of boredom, and a few nicer dead computers that needed an OS i downloaded some of the mods for puppy. Amazingly after i turned off some of the animations the Budda217 release ran amazingly on the toughbook so it got installed to hd and has brought my toughpuppy to life. on a nicer tower at home i installed the puppy mod wNOP v0.2 it is very nice an runs great without having to download and figure out the compiz fuzion, it also uses the ALSA sound wizard.
Here's the only problem left in my Linux quest... on both the toughbook and my home tower, i have to run the alsa wizard every boot or i have no sound. In the alsa steps it says "click yes to load in next boot" and it never does for both computers, i ended up setting the alsa wizard to run on startup, but it is kinda a hassle every time. i tried to edit a .conf file mentioned in the setup, but i think it may be one of two or just not even relevant. any help would be appreciated thanks, Bob
