Sure, I just used it yesterday. > and if yes, with which tricks? Well, alsamixer draws a few vertical sliders with ascii characters. On the bottom of the sliders, you first have the label for the slider, and then a number indicating its volume. The currently active slider will be indicated by less-than and greater-than signs to the left and right of its label. If you turn cursor tracking off (to prevent unwanted moves), you can position the display at the last two lines I just explained above. You move from slider to slider by pressing left/right cursor keys, and you increase/decrease volume with up/down cursor keys. > Which mixers do you use on the console except for amixer? aumix is nice too, but IIRC its for OSS only. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> .''`. | Get my public key via finger mlang/k...@db.debian.org : :' : | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 `. `' `- <URL:http://delysid.org/> <URL:http://www.staff.tugraz.at/mlang/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-accessibility-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
