Andy:

As Mark said, you need to put the sound commands into startup.cmd or run =
them some other way.  
Personally, I have system sounds off because of an occasional hiccup if l=
eft on.  You only need to 
run those commands once since there is a command to save them.  Now I jus=
t run unimix with the 
-loadc parameter.  BTW, those commands were first posted by Chuck.

My T61 is the widescreen model.  I am running Panorama at 1680x1050x16mil=
lion.  I forget why I 
changed from Snap to Panorama but Panorama works better for me.  I think =
it was a booting problem 
where sometimes SNAP would take up to 5 minutes to start up.  I'd have to=
 go back and check older 
emails to remember exactly what the deal was.  My video is reported as GM=
965/PM965/GL960.

I gave up on eCenter, too many hangs and odd things now & then.  I use xC=
enter and rarely 
experience a problem.  I also experienced problems if I have wLan active =
on startup, so I start 
with the radio disabled and start it manually after booting.  This is how=
 I've been doing it for 
about a year now and with the changes I've made by going to Panorama, xCe=
nter, & rc6a it may no 
longer be necessary but I have not bothered to experiment.  

I'm using /smp /apic in my config.sys

My uniaud16 is v1.1.4 & uniaud32 is 1.9.8.  I tried uniaud32-20090125 and=
 it trapped.  I haven't 
tried uniaud114RC7.
