The smallest increments I could produce with amixer are: Playback 0 [0%] [-37.00dB] Playback 1 [3%] [-36.00dB] Playback 2 [5%] [-35.00dB] Playback 3 [8%] [-34.00dB] Playback 4 [11%] [-33.00dB] Playback 5 [14%] [-32.00dB] cget outout is: numid=2,iface=MIXER,name='PCM Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=2,min=0,max=37,step=0 : values=5,5 | dBminmax-min=42949635.96dB,max=0.00dB which looks quite different than the one for my onboard device: numid=30,iface=MIXER,name='Master Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=64,step=0 : values=0 | dBscale-min=-64.00dB,step=1.00dB,mute=0 numid=45,iface=MIXER,name='PCM Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---RW-,values=2,min=0,max=255,step=0 : values=253,253 | dBscale-min=-51.00dB,step=0.20dB,mute=0 Best, Mika ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
