It was never called mixer in the menus. It was called 'Volume Control'. The new 'Volume Control' is the simplified, PA-based one. This is the old one, which we're providing for fallback purposes for cases which the new Volume Control no longer properly handles, so 'Advanced Volume Control' was the best name I could come up with. Calling it a 'mixer' is problematic for anyone who is unaware of the fact that, in computer operating systems, the application you use to change volume levels is often called a 'mixer'. If you don't know this, the name 'mixer' really doesn't imply that you can use it to set volume levels. > Previously reported problems with the mixer not being > able to select CD/AUX remain. Please elaborate. The 'Advanced Volume Control' mixer (command name gst-mixer) is just the same code that was called gnome-volume-control in Fedora 10. It should work as it did in F10 and earlier. The new one is known not yet to be able to do input switching, which is a major reason we're also providing the old one. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
