I'm not clear what you're referring to.

I couldn't see how any option except from -s and unlikely -a would depend on the existence of a backup.

I have not downloaded or run the script. My comments were solely based on the information given in posts in the thread referred to.

Well if you carefully read the whole thread, the option depending on backup was only added at a later stage as an extra  ;)

What i had in mind that this script is ideal even for your non-default setup to determine which files to back up (in whatever way you wish to do so)  ;)

  Alsa on IBM Thinkpad , curaga and clach04 rock!
Will try to keep it brief:
After 2.8 could not get Alsa to work, just noticed wiki "Setting up sound" had changed, followed the directions, blacklisted the cs_4610 card in boot options applied the persistence instructions in the wiki and it all works beautifully.So read the wiki and use the settings the guys give hope it works for you
Thanks Guys

Could you set, that in fresh installation Master vol will be on 75% by default?

The idea is that I don't have to run alsamixer every time I boot TCL. I don't want to use asound.state.

Hi neonix
These are the instructions from alsa.tcz.info:
Code: [Select]
                ----------
If you want your alsa settings to persist across reboots, use the
command "sudo alsactl store" after alsa has been set up and
                add /usr/local/etc/alsa/asound.state to your backup
                if alsa is loaded onboot you may need "sudo alsactl restore"
                ----------
Similar instructions have been posted on this forum.

I doubt the extension will be customized to meet your needs
just so you don't have to follow the recommended instructions.
