Re: [gentoo-user] GNOME Volume Hotkeys (or how to set what my master volume control actually increases/decreases...)
I don't have a solution for you unfortunately. I've been living with it like an on/off switch. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. (This is on a D600 laptop) Yeah, well, mute works. I noticed a key in gconf. It's something like /apps/panel/profiles/default/applet.4/preferences/channel (or something to that effect, I have no idea what it actually is -- it's the applet's preferences area under the panel settings thing). Any clues as to what kind of values it takes? It defaults to 0, so I tried 1 (which would point to PCM on the OSS and ALSA mixer). No dice (doesn't make PCM go up or down, but doesn't make the master work either). -- Microsoft is a lot better at making money than it is at making good operating systems. -- Linus Torvalds -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Right click on this applet to bring up preferences, then you can select which chanel the applet controls. (You'll notice the value in gconf-editor changing as well). I use this applet to control my volume, because I can't get the keys working properly - its second best though as I have to move the mouse to the applet, etc. HTH, -- Iain Buchanan [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Anyways, my keyboard hotkeys to increase/decrease the volume don't actually work. I looked into it, and the only thing that has an effect on the master mixer is mute/unmute. Volume has absolutely no effect. PCM doesn't either. It seems the only one that has any effect as far as sound output goes is one called VIA DXS. Moving that slider makes the volume go up and down. What I'm asking is one of these two things: 1) How can I map the master mixer controls to this mixer? or 2) How can I make my GNOME volume control applet increase/decrease that mixer instead of the master mixer?
