sure you can run hdspmixer.
make an ".xinitrc" file in your home directory. in it put something like:
hdspmixer &
you can also safely put other stuff in there if you like:
jackd -d alsa & pd -jack mypathc.pd & xterm
but you might be better off doing this in some other star script and killing X after you know hdspmixer has been run. you only need to run hdspmixer once - this initializes the card somehow.
Yes, if you put
hdspmixer >anyfilename
in /etc/rc.local, it will sneakily load hdspmixer without invoking the GUI, so you don't need to start X at all.
Also, if your set the $JACK_START_SERVER environment variable with jack>=0.9.8 (I think), the jack server will start automatically when you start a client.
I don't know if this is of any use?
