Hi again... I don't know, but I think I am having bad luck with the sound. Look at this:
arktomis| mixerctl -a | grep "outpu*" outputs.dac02.source=hdaudio outputs.sel0c.mute=off outputs.sel0c=124,124 outputs.sel0d.mute=off outputs.sel0d=124,124 outputs.green11.mute=off outputs.green11.boost=off outputs.unknown12.mute=off outputs.unknown12.boost=off outputs.unknown13.mute=off outputs.unknown13=120 outputs.red14=85,85 outputs.unknown15=85,85 outputs.unknown16.mute=off outputs.unknown16.dir=input outputs.pow19.source=mix20 outputs.black1b.mute=off outputs.black1b=126,126 outputs.red1c.mute=off outputs.red1c.dir=input outputs.widget1d.source=mix07 outputs.sel21.mute=off outputs.sel21=120,120 outputs.sel25=85,85 outputs.widget26.source=red14 I tried to set all of these with a number on it to a higher value. E.g.: arktomis| mixerctl outputs.sel25=255,255 outputs.sel25: 85,85 -> 255,255 And then cat BIGFILE > /dev/sound whilst playing with the volume up/ mute bottoms I also made sure that everything in the software is not muted: arktomis| mixerctl -a | grep mut record.adc05.mute=off record.adc06.mute=off inputs.mix07.sel22.mut=off inputs.mix07.sel21.mut=off inputs.mix0a.dac04.mut=off inputs.mix0a.sel21.mut=off inputs.mix0b.sel0f.mut=off inputs.mix0b.sel21.mut=off outputs.sel0c.mute=off outputs.sel0d.mute=off inputs.beep10.mute=off outputs.green11.mute=off outputs.unknown12.mute=off outputs.unknown13.mute=off outputs.unknown16.mute=off outputs.black1b.mute=off outputs.red1c.mute=off inputs.mix1e.sel0e.mut=off inputs.mix1e.sel21.mut=off inputs.mix20.red14.mut=off inputs.mix20.sel25.mut=off outputs.sel21.mute=off inputs.mix24.sel23.mut=off inputs.mix24.sel21.mut=off But still no sound at all... And in /etc/mixerctl.conf I have arktomis| cat /etc/mixerctl.conf outputs.master=200,200 outputs.master.mute=off outputs.headphones=160,160 outputs.headphones.mute=off But arktomis| mixerctl outputs.master=270,270 mixerctl: field outputs.master does not exist of course... Again, I must be blind or doing something wrong... but where? Or does this slightly different chip from Peter's make such a big difference??
