[PATCH alsa-utils] alsactl: Add --quiet option to suppress alsa-lib error messages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



alsactl prints error messages from alsa-lib as is, and it's rather
annoying to see the error messages like

  alsactl[xxx]: alsa-lib parser.c:242:(error_node) UCM is not supported for this HDA model (HDA Intel PCH...)
  alsactl[xxx]: alsa-lib main.c:1405:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:0 use case configuration -6

that are recorded in the syslog at each boot.

This patch adds --quiet (or -q) option to suppress those error
messages from alsa-lib, and applies to the systemd services as
default.
