First enable kmilod again - since KDE 3.4 or 3.5 the programmers improved this
daemon so far that even I don't want to miss the features anym more. :-)
Now let's get XF86AudioRaiseVolume and XF86AudioLowerVolume "renamed". You
need to remap the keys with xmodmap. Create in ~/bin a script named
autorun.sh, make it executable, create a shortcut in the hidden KDE autorun
directory (sorry, I have the german version running, so I only tell the
german name of the directory: ~/.kde/Autostart) OR edit an existing startup
script (then insert only the last of the 3 following lines):
#!/bin/bash
#
/usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap ~/.keyboardrc
create a hidden file in ~ named .keyboardrc and fill in:
keycode 174 = F18
keycode 176 = F19
To check if everthing is working fine by now, execute in a terminal or
konsole:
/usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap ~/.keyboardrc
Then run xev, press the keys [Vol+] and [Vol-]. You should see the output:
...
KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x2e00001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 1471174660, (685,-187), root:(689,608),
state 0x0, keycode 176 (keysym 0x1008ff13, F19),
same_screen YES,
...
Remember your posting? XF86AudioRaiseVolume should have changed to F19,
XF86AudioLowerVolume should have changed to F18. If that happens, you can
install following scripts in ~/bin and bind them with KControl, Regional &
Accessibility, Keyboard shortcuts to the scripts.
script for volume up (8 lines):
#!/bin/bash
#
lv=$(($(dcop kmix Mixer0 volume 0)+5))
dcop kmix Mixer0 setVolume 0 $lv
dcop kded kmilod displayProgress MainVolume $lv
# kdialog --passivepopup "Volume: $lv" 1
# either use dcop kded ... or kdialog for volume output
# with kdialog last number is time in seconds for popup window
script for volume down (8 lines):
#!/bin/bash
#
lv=$(($(dcop kmix Mixer0 volume 0)-5))
dcop kmix Mixer0 setVolume 0 $lv
dcop kded kmilod displayProgress MainVolume $lv
# kdialog --passivepopup "Volume: $lv" 1
# either use dcop kded ... or kdialog for volume output
# with kdialog last number is time in seconds for popup window
last a script for mute (10 lines):
#!/bin/bash
#
dcop kmix Mixer0 toggleMute 0
# lv=$(dcop kmix Mixer0 mute 0)
if [ "$(dcop kmix Mixer0 mute 0)" = "true" ]
then
dcop kded kmilod displayText "Stummgeschaltet"
else
dcop kded kmilod displayProgress MainVolume $(dcop kmix Mixer0 absoluteVolume
0)
fi
Don't forget to bind the script with khotkeys...
cu/2, Andreas
