FWIW I do have a volumen control on my amp, which sits under my monitor (it's a small amp :) but I find it much easier to leave its volume control alone and set a typical volume level in alsamixer on each of the desktop machines - the newer they are, the quieter the analogue outputs - and then fine tune with my mouse. 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
