[Xlog-discussion] Cwdaemon

[John]

Still trying... on fresh cold boots the last two mornings, "ps -A" shows no cwdaemon running. (Everybody probably knows this, but I had to try it anyway: starting Xlog does not start cwdaemon.) I started cwdaemon  with "sudo /usr/sbin ./cwdaemon". Another "ps -A" then shows it running. Xlog's keyer continues not to function.

Below is my /etc/init.d/cwdaemon. Doesn't this specify what's set to run at boot? It appears to run /etc/default/cwdaemon (although no changes I've made there, like SPEED, seem to have any effect) and to start /usr/sbin/cwdaemon. My parport0 is recognized and lp is not loaded. As previously reported, /usr/share/cwdaemon/cwtest produces audible output only at the "switch to soundcard" point.

Anyone see anything wrong here? Can anyone confirm that it's like theirs?
