Gvolwheel needs a windowmanager which provides a tray. Works in icewm. I don't use DEs. It _only_ works with the default alsa output (/dev/mixer) - one of my boxes with an intel HDMI chip defaults to using HDMI which is useless for me : alsa can be overridden, but my attempts to force gvolwheel to work there only succeeded once - maybe I'll need to look for another lightweight volume control.
The 0.7 version was gtk+-2, but I had to build gtk+-3 for audacious so I went with 1.0. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
