From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040922 Description of problem: I keep getting the message: - FATAL: Error running install command for sound_slot_1 showing up in my logs. I only have 1 sound card in my system (sound_slot_0 ?) which is working fine. The file that seems to be generating this error message is: - /etc/log.d/scripts/services/modprobe Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): logwatch-5.1-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot and inspect /var/log/messages Actual Results: "FATAL: Error running install command for sound_slot_1" is displayed several times, and keeps being displayed as long as the the system is up. Expected Results: No error because my sound card is working fine. Additional info: Sound card uses EMU10K1 module.
It seems that this message is generated by some component of gnome-desktop. Because I wasn't able to reproduce it when using KDE or FluxBox.
Its the install command associated with the sound driver (see modprobe.conf) which is failing.
I'm using stock modprobe.conf (as far as sound is concerned). Here is the contents of it, if it is any help: - alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 install snd-emu10k1 /usr/sbin/alsactl restore; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-emu10k1 remove snd-emu10k1 /usr/sbin/alsactl store; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-emu10k1 alias usb-controller uhci-hcd alias usb-controller1 ehci-hcd install ov511 /sbin/modprobe ovcamchip; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ov511 options ov511 led=2 alias char-major-89 i2c-dev alias eth0 sundance
I still haven't figured out what was causing this, but whatever it was, I am no longer getting this problem since upgrading to FC3.
