Hi mbivol10
You need to learn about persistence and backups. I recommend reading:

Hi Bela.

I have been working with beta2 for some time and it working fine.

I have one issue. The command sudo alsactl store does not work results in:

--- Code: ---tc@piCorePlayer:~$ sudo alsactl store
alsactl: save_state:1626: Cannot open /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for writing: No such file or directory

--- End code ---

Usually we have also installed alsa-config but that is not available on 8.0 yet.
I did install ALSA.tzc and alsa-utils.tcz ands also tried alsa-plugins.tzc - but still I get this error.

Juanito:
As a temporary fix you can create the folder /var/lib/alsa

Gerrelt:
Hi Steen,

 This is how I got alsa working on piCore 8 :


--- Code: ---tce-load -wi alsa.tcz
tce-load -wi alsa-utils.tcz
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/alsa
sudo echo "var/lib/alsa" >> /opt/.filetool.lst
--- End code ---

Then use "sudo alsamixer" to make adjustments.
Then store it with:


--- Code: ---sudo alsactl store
--- End code ---

And I had to use this command in bootlocal.sh to restore the alsa settings at boot:


--- Code: ---for i in $(seq 1 30); do alsactl restore && break || sleep 0.1; done
--- End code ---


If you just run "alsactl restore" then chances are that your USB soundcard isn't ready yet when the restore command in executed.
This extended command will try for 3 seconds to restore the settings.

Greetings,
    Gerrelt.
