Alsactl Boot Error

Alsactl Boot Error

[Peter]

Hi,

After upgrading to slackware 10.2 I get the following error when booting:

Loading ALSA mixer settings:  /usr/sbin/alsactl restore
/usr/sbin/alsactl: set_control:873: failed to obtain info for
control #35 (No such file or directory)

What is the meaning and does it have any negative effect, how to correct?

Thanks & regards
- 
Peter

If you do a run "man alsactl" at the command line, it will tell you that
this file is used for advanced control of your sound card.

Thanks, yes I am aware of this, however, it is not a question of the alsactl
file it must be a problem within this files or another file it calls on the
way I read the error message, "set_control:873: failed to obtain info for
control #35 (No such file or directory)"
Reinstalling the alsa_utils program of slackware10.1 does not solve the
problem.

It simply means that there are new controls (or there was a name change
on an existing control) with the new kernel drivers. If you switch back
and forth between a couple kernel versions, you'll see this pretty
often. It isn't harmful in any way, but if you want to make it go away,
a simple "alsactl store" as root will suffice.
