John, did you ever get an answer to your question about unmuting the sound card? I'd need it too. Thanks for any info.

Subject: testing grml All, First of all, grml has a new release candidate out. They could use people to test accessibility. Point a vrowser to http://bit.ly/sESUaa Second, is there a command to unmute the sound card? I mean, I know you can do that with a mixer but I need a command to do it because if there is no sound, I can't run the mixer. I'm pretty sure that software speech is working on this latest grml release but I can't confirm it because I can't get sound to work. And I think that's because the sound card is muted. _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
