Move most existing volume settings to the alsactl database. * Dropped patches: - move_asound_state_to_var.patch - remove_alsaconf.patch - alsactl_init_update_to_52bd2f8a_head.patch * debian/rules: Call configure with --disable-alsaconf argument. * debian/patches/alsactl_sbin.patch: Adjust upstream udev rule to call alsactl in /sbin. [ Luke Yelavich ] * Create 2 new upstart jobs for storing, and restoring alsa mixer levels, to perform the same functionality as the systemd jobs used by RedHat et al. * Remove or clean up files: - debian/dirs - debian/init - debian/udev.* * debian/control: Build depend on libasound2-dev >= 1.0.24.1 * debian/postinst: Remove alsa-mixer-save.conf on upgrade * debian/changelog.ALSA: Updated * debian/rules: No need to run the alsa upstart jobs on package install/upgrade -- Luke Yelavich Tue, 22 Feb 2011 15:56:54 +1100 }}} So running /etc/init.d/alsa-utils stop fails, and the && presumably masks the failure, and this line doesn't do anything. We should fix it to do something useful, or remove it." defect new normal The Distant Future --
