Hello, I am a bit new to alsa since my applications worked better with oss before. I own a emu10k1 card.
I know, the driver has everything unmuted by default, so I use the amix program to set the sound in startup, I noticed the following: My soundcard has about a dozen or more "devices". Most of them are hard to guess what they do. When I use alsamixer I have so many sliders, that its kinda hard to find wich one to pull. some of them also seem to interact wich eachother making it possible to use different mixing setups? Is there any convenient mixer that doesnt let me fumble around and just gives me a simple set of sliders? I only have a set of nasty old pcspeakers for my sound here so I realy don't bother with any of the advanced options. And is there any documentation about what all the other sliders mean? I can guess "Master" and "PCM" but some of the mixer controls seem rather obscure. If it allows you to do anything funky with this card ( like i've seen some years ago in win98 ) it would be fun. bye, Matt. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
