Need help w/ a simple script

[knubbles]

Hello,
LInux newbie number 343493 here :)
I have a soundblaster live platinum and in order to get the live drive to function properly I need to use emu-dspmgr. I've figured it out and have to manually enter the commands after startup... How would I go about writing a script to do this for me? Thnx a bunch.

what distro you are using would be helpfull but I'll refer to redhat since it seems to be very popular.
allot of times you can add your command to the end of the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file.

this will activate your command at bootup after the rest of the initialize proccesses are done.
hope this helps.
