Hello, I am running Gentoo Linux, with a kernel version 2.6.20-something. I haven't had any reason to switch kernels lately, and don't want to try out the Git repository stuff anyhow. The issue I am having is that when I plug in my headphones, the volume on them is far too loud. It's almost enough to blast my eardrumbs--not literally, but it's certainly not soft or quiet. By contrast, the speaker volume is quiet and at a level I can deal with. I've tried fiddling with Alsamixer, as well as amixer, the latter of which doesn't make much sense to me. All I really want to do is lower the volume of the headphone audio to a reasonable level, and I'm not quite sure about how to do so. Any tips would be appreciated. Yours, Zack. _________________________________________________________________ Help yourself to FREE treats served up daily at the Messenger Caf?.
