OSS didn't do that "itself". He must have had a (maybe init-)script that saved the mixer-settings at shutdown (or whenever) and restored the values at startup. Definitly not a kernel issue. (Hint, time for a FAQ on "common" issues that are not problem of the kernel. And maybe a "RESOLVE because it's a FAQ"-Status :-) e.g. Debian does install an init-script it when you install the "aumix"-package. Bis denn -- Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
