However, we don't necessarily want to unmute all volumes. What about line-in and mic? I can think of instances in which unmuting the microphone would be undesirable. E.G., what happens if both the speaker and microphone are built-in, and both are unmuted? The unmute script that I use on my CD is fairly selective about what it unmutes, even though it tries to unmute all outputs. I think that the script originally came from a Debian package; my modifications have been fairly minor. > That's why I'm saying it should be done only when the debian installer > gives the option to do so. Again, doable. Of course, it's special-casing, but I can kind of see the need for it. -- Chris
