A > link that works for me today is > http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/ar01s02.html Yes, you are absolutely right, but if the desktop entries are installed via alsa-tools-gui and you have neither a hammerfall, nor an echoaudio, ICE 1712, RME Digi Soundcard the user get confused about those entries? Sorry, but this isn't focused by freedesktop standards yet ;) But yes, the package description notes, that alsa-tools-gui is designed for: echomixer - control tool for Echoaudio soundcards envy24control - control tool for Envy24 (ice1712) based soundcards hdspconf - GUI program to control the Hammerfall HDSP Alsa Settings. hdspmixer - tool to control the advanced routing features of the RME Hammerfall DSP. rmedigicontrol - control tool for RME Digi32 and RME Digi96 soundcards I've added your desktop entries in alsa-tools-gui 1.0.14rc3 svn version. Jordi, please upload beside the waiting 1.0.14rc4 version.
