Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state
Thanks very much for your explaination.. very useful. The last curiosity...is there a place to find a schema of what I change if i change alsamixer values? i mean, what is the value to change in order to increase the caller's voice? - Original Message - From: "Al Johnson" To: community@lists.openmoko.org Subject: Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 13:12:01 + I'm not certain on QTExtended, but /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/ is the usual location on most of the distros. You can use any filename you like, but the applications will only use the filenames they expect. I don't know if these are configurable or hardcoded in QTExtended. The names should be fairly self-explanatory when you see them in the directory. The phone will probably spend most of its time using stereoout.state so that the ringtone or music playback happens through the speaker. When you pick up a call the dialler will switch it to gsmhandset.state, and back to stereoout.state when you hang up. It may use headset.state and gsmheadset.state if the wired headset is plugged in, or gsmstereoout if the speakerphone setting is used.

Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state
Where are stored these files? there is a specific file state to store or can i store any file in any directory? and if yes, how can i set alsa to use that particular file? thanks - Original Message - From: "Al Johnson" To: community@lists.openmoko.org Subject: Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 11:58:50 + On Thursday 18 December 2008, Giorgio Marci wrote: > I adjust the volume on QTExt 4.4.2 using alsamixer and then i'd like to > store its state, but the command > > alsactl -f path_to_file.state store > > doesn't seem to work and, after that i make or receive a call, the state > returns to default! > > How can i save the alsa state permanently? The command looks correct, but you need to give it the right path and filename for the state you are trying to modify. You could always take a copy of the file before and after, and diff them to check your changes have been saved. I assume you know there are multiple state files that the applications will switch between as required. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- Be Yourself @ mail.com!

[QTExtended] cannot store alsa state
I adjust the volume on QTExt 4.4.2 using alsamixer and then i'd like to store its state, but the command alsactl -f path_to_file.state store doesn't seem to work and, after that i make or receive a call, the state returns to default! How can i save the alsa state permanently? Giorgio -- Be Yourself @ mail.com!
