Add support for preload of sound modules needed for mixer operation. Use a blank separated list of modules in ${mixer_modules}, defined in /etc/rc.conf and preloaded by /etc/rc.d/mixer
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->jhb Assign to author of /etc/rc.d/mixer.
Humm, I'm not really a sound genius, I just got the mixer settings for my laptop to save/restore across boot. :) However, it strikes me that perhaps the rcNG framework should include some sort of helper API for handling dependent modules much like it has one for scripts to say that they require a certain program to be present if they are going to run successfully rather than adding a bunch of one-off hacks to various rc scripts. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org
The main goal may be make sysinstall able of configure sound via menu. I'm not a sysinstall or rcNG expert, but this way, if usable, must be better that use /boot/loader.conf.
rcNG does have some builtin methods for handling klds now, but I'm not sure that this change really belongs in this script. I'm going to punt it over to freebsd-multimedia@ -- John Baldwin
Responsible Changed From-To: jhb->freebsd-multimedia Punt this over to the sound maintainers.
For bugs matching the following criteria: Status: In Progress Changed: (is less than) 2014-06-01 Reset to default assignee and clear in-progress tags. Mail being skipped
As jhb mentioned ages ago, this doesn't really belong in this script. Closing.
