========================================================================== Volume.app -- a simple windowmaker volume control dockapp ========================================================================== This is a simple volume control for the AfterStep / BlackBox / Window Maker dock. Volume.app is intended to be an extremely simple, efficient, and attractive interface to a system's sound mixer. Currently, only OSS mixer interface is supported. ALSA mixer can be used through ALSA's OSS emulation. ========================================================================== NOTE: The hacks/mods are for "ALSA's OSS emulation" in ALSA systems. NOTE2: There are two 'mod' files: "config.h.in.mod" and "volume.app.c.mod". If you want to use them, simple rename them to each "original filename" (remove ".mod" on filename). "volume.app.c.mod" is a hack to fix the mute/unmute problem for ALSA systems. (It uses "amixer" command as background). "config.h.in.mod" is just a covenience to set some parameters. eg: If is notified that the app is not running on the right mixer (more than 1 soundcard), you may try to set the default mixer before creating the package! 'cat /proc/asound/oss/sndstat' and search the "Mixers" section. locate the desired 'mixer number' and then modify file "config.h.in.mod" at "DEFAULT_MIXER_DEVICE" parameter. Eg2: if desired mixer is "2", modify "config.h.in.mod" as below: DEFAULT_MIXER_DEVICE "/dev/mixer" ( to ) DEFAULT_MIXER_DEVICE "/dev/mixer2" Again, do not forget to rename the file "config.h.in.mod" to "config.h.in" before creating the package. ==========================================================================
