Thank you. I agree with struppi that it would make volume control much easier.
While it might be "solved" in fluxbox, some of us don't like having apps hanging around in the slit if they will be used only occasionally. =o)
EDIT: after a little research, i decided it no longer matters to me =o)
While umix is a bit annoying when compared to some commandline mixers (it doesn't seem to allow a +/- command), it's still very easy to control through hotkeys. As an example, I set up some hotkeys in fluxbox to control the main volume with
"Mod3 1 :ExecCommand umix vol 10"
"Mod3 2 :ExecCommand umix vol 20"
blah blah blah
"Mod3 0 :ExecCommand umix 100"
I was accustomed to a mixer that would allow me to adjust volume using only 2 key combos, but this works just as well.
EDIT2: umix does produce errors with every use, though, which is a little irritating when you regularly watch syslog.
