> Does the mute command from /proc/acpi/ibm/volume causes MUTE to activate? Yes. The only thing goes wrong is that with mute button pressed, the volume byte becomes 0x4*, * is the level. By echo mute > volume, it becomes 0xc*. c & 4 = 4. Great thanks if you can do something around ALSA. As far as I know, Thinkpad T400 and T500 wihch I met are in the same status with the volume control. -- Sincerely, Yang Zhe ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ ibm-acpi-devel mailing list ibm-acpi-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ibm-acpi-devel
