This is great. I should have looked at that earlier. So it looks like
the sysctl, boot loader-time setting isn't really useful since I can
set the modes when the kernel is booted, contrarly to the sysctl
setting.
And it still solves the skipping MP3 problem I had.
Thanks for those precisions and that atacontrol pearl, Soeren. :)
