Re: [newbie] Volume Control in KDE?
there is a k>config>kde>sound>mixer dialog with a 'load volumes on login' setting but i don't know if this launches the panel icon as well, also a long winded way is to manually launch and dock kmix, logout with 'save setting' and from then on as long you don't accidentally exit kmix before logging out it will always be launched, at least this is how i deduced i got it to work for me bascule On Thursday 21 June 2001 10:29 pm, you wrote: > Ed Kasky wrote: > > Is there a volume control anywhere in KDE desktop?

Edwith konqueror, navigate to your ~/.kde/Autostart/ directory and right-click on konqueror's background, Choose 'Create new' then choose 'Link to Application'. In the execute tab under 'Command' put this: kmix -caption "%c" %i %m when finished click on the new icon and a cyan colored speaker will appear in the area to the left of the KDE clock display. Close konqueror. In the future that icon will show up there all the time. Click it when you need to adjust the volume. :) -- Alan
