[SOLVED] Error running install command for soundcore

Hi,
I use OSSv4 instead of ALSA. Everything is working correctly but I noticed an error message in the bootlog:

systemd-udevd[204]: Error running install command for soundcore

What does this mean? Why is there an error?

Of course I blacklisted the ALSA module as it is described in the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/OSS#Install

best regards
nuc

Re: [SOLVED] Error running install command for soundcore

You "blacklisted" soundcore by forcing modprobe to instead run a command that invariably fails (/bin/false). What you're seeing is expected behavior. If you want to actually blacklist the module, then you need to use the 'blacklist' option, not the install option.

Re: [SOLVED] Error running install command for soundcore

Ok, thanks for the info.
But why does the wiki suggest to run "install soundcore /bin/false" instead of just "blacklist soundcore"? In earlier revisions the wiki suggested to do "blacklist soundcore" (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?ti … did=231068).
Doesn't this actually have the same effect?

EDIT:
I found this https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … acklisting
