hmm. i'm in groups "audio" and "cdrom" as well; on my debian machine "cdcd setvol ..." works like a charm. you don't have some sort of "mute" feature turned on elsewhere (hardware or software) perhaps? -- by the way: LESSON FOR THE DAY-- > I am not currently a subscriber but will use geocrawler to check the > archives for possible solutions. Thanks for any help you can give. i think this is one of the most CONSIDERATE requests i've ever seen. rather than ask for extra work on our part (please cc: me) he gladly offers to go to a bit of extra effort himself (browse geocrawler, which doesn't thread messages). kudos, thomas! i can just about guarantee that everyone who wants to help will include a cc: directly to you as a result. -- DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #19 from Dave Sherohman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : How do you determine WHICH NETWORK SERVICES ARE OPEN (active)? Try "netstat -a | grep LISTEN". To see numeric values (instead of the common names for services using a particular port) then try "netstat -na" instead. For more info, look at "man netstat". Also try "lsof -i" as root. "man lsof" for details. =Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Also see http://newbieDoc.sourceForge.net/ ...
