im using suse 9.2 with kde 3.3. the volume control slider is not in the panel. when i right click on the panel and do "add->applet", i dont see volume, but only "mixer", which i dont want. When i do "add->application button-> multimedia -> volume control -> volume control", i get some slider icon on my panel, but when i click it, it opens the mixer.
how can i get a normal volume slider button in my panel?
You get the mixer because that is where you can control the volume. It is also known as kmix in the application tree under volume control.
Yes, but what i want is the gnome (or windows) kind of volume control, where i click and slide up and down from the panel, not to open a separate mixer gui! is this not possible in kde? I only want advanced volume options like the mixer if i "right-click" on the volume button.
Clem.
It works as designed. You could always make changes to kmix or write an application that does just that if you need the functionality, but I see a range of mixers in the KDE menu that do a fine job of setting the volume. I click on KMix in the panel and adjust whichever control to requirement. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
