hdspmixer does not start on ubuntu 9.10

[Tero Laitinen]

Binary package hint: alsa-tools-gui

After an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10:

$ hdspmixer
hdspmixer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I installed the libstdc++.so.5 from http://packages.debian.org/lenny/amd64/libstdc++5/download but it did not help.
Now hdspmixer crashes on startup.

tero@napalmi:~$ hdspmixer

Kernel upgrade to 2.6.31-14 solved the issue.
