I was able to see the channel/input source using alsamixer and xfce4-mixer Actual Results: it is not possible to change channel and input source options Expected Results: it should be possible to change options (terminology from xfce4-panel) because of that I was not able to set my external microphone to work, and internal has really poor quality, I found it only because I was heaving same microphone problems earlier with KDE ... solved then with the switches - but could not set it now with gmixer (default volume control in XFCE) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

More than a bug, this is a lacking feature of the software. Latest release was in 2009. I'm soon going to drop it from lxde as well. Possible replacements are volumeicon or pnmixer. Because of that, i'm going to close it as invalid. Please reopen if you don't agree explaining the reason. Sadly i have no knowledge to add features to this software myself. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

My steps was upgrade from openSuse 11.4 to 12.1m5. After upgrade I had gmixer to control my volume. As it is no more maintained and does not contain important features (options) then the default should be xfce4-panel-plugin-mixer which was for me the only which works for me (now after searching for alternative). If possible then the switch (gmixer -> xfce4-panel-plugin-mixer) should be automatic during system upgrade. If it is possible then the xfce4-panel-plugin-mixer should be added during installation/upgrade to the panel (if sound card available?).

Have you tried xfce4-volumed for handling volume keys? Getting a usable mixer applet is on my todo-list, however xfce4-mixer suffers from some severe usability issues, it has no slider widget and can only be used with a mousewheel and it provides no automatic default configuration but must be manually configured before first usage. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

xfce4-volumed worked nice, are there any other mixers I could try ? or is there anything I could do for the xfce4-mixer ?

So far I haven't really found anything that would make a decent default, adding a slider widget and volume key bindings to the xfce4 mixer applet and getting that accepted upstream seems like the most viable solution to me. Working key bindings for the volume keys could probably also be easily implemented by using the keybinder library (http://kaizer.se/wiki/keybinder/). Please contact me if you can and want to help with that, I would certainly appreciate it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
