Installed Fluxbox and the multimedia keys work fine straight 'out of the box' - forgot how much I like Fluxbox/Blackbox! I used Blackbox years and years ago, so will probably stick with Fluxbox. As you probably guessed, I'm trying to stay away from the Gnome/KDE behemoth model, which is why I installed WindowMaker a few days ago and then Fluxbox. I'm reluctant to label this as 'solved' as it seems the problem lays with WindowMaker/WPrefs, meaning I have to put these three commands... amixer set Master 2%+ amixer set Master 2%- amixer set Master toggle ... in menu items and bind shortcut keys to them, which is maybe only semi-solved? Oh yeah, Fluxbox is so great. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-laptop-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
