[Bug 211563] New: Volume Settings for Card X Dialog
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211563 Summary: Volume Settings for Card X Dialog Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: lslezak@novell.com ReportedBy: locilka@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com I'm sorry, but this dialog is gonna scare people a bit :) I know that the solution reflects the fact that we don't have enough space in dialogs but... The dialog doesn't solve user's needs. User wants/needs this: * Find out how high is the sound strength set for particular output/input * Set the particular strength for particular input/output This cannot be solved by IntFiled and definitely not in a 4x6 items grid. Try some tests: * Try to find out the Microphone or CD value but don't think about numbers, they don't have any reasonable meaning here... * Try to image if the volume setting is too high or too low... * Try to find Wave, CD, AC97 and Video channels and adjust them to the same value... (don't think about numbers, think just about the sound strength like you do it on your CD-player). What do we need is: * Limit number of visible channels * Do not use IntField but Sliders * Do not use grid but a simplier representation * Maybe do the list of channels configurable * Or maybe drop almost all of these channels and leave this task on the KDE mixer and alsamixer -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211563 ------- Comment #2 from locilka@novell.com 2006-10-11 05:59 MST ------- By the way, the dialog has a [Back] and [Next] button despite the fact that it is a only one dialog where [Back] means [Cancel] and [Next] means [Accept] or [OK]. This should be fixed to follow the YaST dialog style guide. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211563 ------- Comment #3 from lslezak@novell.com 2006-11-30 08:12 MST ------- My comments: Limited number of channels: it's hard to implement, each sound card has different channels and it's impossible to tell which channel is important and which one can be hidden. Sliders: yes, that change should improve the situation Grid: hm, I don't know what could be "simpler", any hint? Configurable list of channels: no, that's too complicated for such a simple task Using of external tools: that's quite good solution, yast could set only "Master" and "PCM" channels, the rest could be configured by another tool. To comment #2: the problem is that the same dialog is used during expert configuration where mixer is also configured, the dialog should respect the current workflow. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
