Debian does not have /etc/rc.d
it has /etc/init.d containing
all the control scripts. there are also simlinks in /etc/rcn.d where n is the
runlevel so to stop something from loading just rm the
s and k symlink in the /etc/rcn.d directory.
To add in the alsa startup so it loads at boot just do
update-rc.d alsasound defaults
the alsasound script should allready exist in /etc/init.d/alsasound so it just means
update-rc.d needs to add symlinks into /etc/rcn.d

Regards, Kerry.

> Hi. How can I delete a user account? I have several user accounts on this box that are no longer used. I tred adduser --remove user and that didn't work. Would anyone have any suggestions on this? Also, for some odd reason, /etc/rc.d seems to be nonexistent on my Debian box. I know it would be easy to edit rc.local to put in my shell script to load the alsa modules, but I don't have rc.d to begin with. I was looking at adding it in as part of the init process at boot time. Also, do I really need rc.d to begin with? If I create an /etc/rc.d/rc.local with some commands, which file (s) would I have to edit to have rc.local be read at start-up? Thanks!
