Hi,

im new to Linux and I have a problem recording via ALSA.

I am writing a little bash-script to record from "Line In". To do so, I 
have first to "open" IGain.
OK, every application on my K-Desktop calls the control "IGain" but it is 
showed as "Capture" in amixer. The problem is, I can`t unmute Capture.
Pls take a look at the following bash log:

--- beginn ---

Linda:~ # amixer get Capture
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
   Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
   Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
   Limits: Capture 0 - 15
   Front Left: Capture 12 [80%] [off]           <-- Control is off
   Front Right: Capture 12 [80%] [off]          <--

Linda:~ # amixer sset Capture unmute
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
   Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
   Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
   Limits: Capture 0 - 15
   Front Left: Capture 12 [80%] [off]           <-- it is still off
   Front Right: Capture 12 [80%] [off]          <--

Linda:~ # amixer sset Capture toggle
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
   Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
   Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
   Limits: Capture 0 - 15
   Front Left: Capture 12 [80%] [on]            <-- Control is on
   Front Right: Capture 12 [80%] [on]           <--

--- end ---

Do I really have to toggle the control? First check if both Channels are 
off and, if true toggle them?
Or am I completly wrong? I can't find anything in the docs or the man-pages.

My System:
VIA EPIA Mini-ITX Mainboard (Audio: VT1612A AC'97  Codec / on Board)
SuSE 8.0
Soundsystem: Alsa 0.9.0


Thx in advance

Wolfgang
