Doing it in a log function gives you a more natural feel to the control, rather than most of the range of the control having little effect, then the rest of the control being very touchy (linear level controls). > I think they are all intended to be left at or near maximum, and you > are expected to control the actual volume with some other volume knob, > say on your external amplifier.

Pulseaudio is supposed to let you control the volume of each application individually. That's volume control, not volume off/on. And the same technique, mixing, doesn't matter whether it's for feeding audio to an external amplifier, or built in. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
