You could use mixer(8) to control the volume and other sound parameters, with a command like this: % mixer vol 100 To make the settings persist over reboots, add the following to `/boot/device.hints': ## Set the audio mixer's volume channel [Handbook, 7.2.4]. hint.pcm.0.vol="100" ## Do the above for all mixer channels. The available channels can be ## found using mixer(8). hint.pcm.0.pcm="100" hint.pcm.0.speaker="100" hint.pcm.0.line="100" hint.pcm.0.mic="100" hint.pcm.0.cd="100" hint.pcm.0.rec="100" hint.pcm.0.ogain="100" hint.pcm.0.line1="100" hint.pcm.0.phin="100" hint.pcm.0.phout="100" hint.pcm.0.video="100" I do not understand the way the sound system works, so some of the above channels may be meaningless. However, it should give one the idea. HTH, Raghavendra. -- N. Raghavendra <raghu@mri.ernet.in> | See message headers for contact Harish-Chandra Research Institute | and OpenPGP details.
