how do i use ossmix/ossxmix to set the vol of my speaker

[Abayomi]

hello,
i just install oss on my solaris 10 and i tried to set the vol to the highest volume using ossxmix but i dont know how to save it so that it stays that way.

Also is there a wy i can mute my internal laptop speaker when i'm using earphone or connected to a speaker. Thank in advance

run savemixer - it will save the settings. You must run savemixer -l to load the saved settings - usually rc scripts or your .profile can be modified to run this automatically.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
if test -f /etc/oss.conf
then
  . /etc/oss.conf
else
  OSSLIBDIR=/usr/lib/oss
fi

state=$1

if test -f /etc/oss.conf
then
. /etc/oss.conf
else
   OSSLIBDIR=$OSSLIBDIR
fi

case $state in

'start')
   /usr/sbin/savemixer -L > /dev/null 2>&1
   /usr/sbin/ossdevlinks > /dev/null 2>&1
        exit 0
        ;;
'stop')
   /usr/sbin/savemixer > /dev/null 2>&1
   exit 0
        ;;
esac

exit 1


copy the above contents to /etc/init.d/oss and remember to chmod a+x /etc/init.d/oss and now when your machine starts it will run savemixer -L

dev,
i have done exactly as you said but still the mixer is not saved;except that when i run ossxmix afterwards the gui is fully than usual displaying more control up to pcm8.
