Alsa is obviously being started at bootup on FC5 in some different way, but I havn't discovered how yet. Whether this is specific to FC5, I don't know. When I installed FC3, and 4, Alsa worked out of the box, and there was no good reason to root around the filesystem seeing what bits were, or were not there. Then I installed the planetccrma stuff, which I always do, and the script is at /etc/rc.d/init.d , as it always had been since I've been using FC with planetccrma. Nigel.
