Linux 2.1.x versions of the sound driver contain two internal calls which
can be used if someone is willing to implement support for loading/saving
the mixer levels using kerneld. I'm not interested in implementing this
feature myself but will give some instructions if somebody else wants to
do it (has experience with kerneld).
