hola my friends,
Really i need to introduce my thanks for poeples whom manage that amazing forum

i need to ask about some way on how i can change my volume up using my nmixer tool, really i find that i can make some commands like :

Code:

nmixer -q -s pcm=70
nmixer -q -s pcm=100

so, here i put pcm and pcm2 volume to 70% and 100% respectively.
but when i make some cronjob to this commands but some of bash scripts it doesn't deployed yet, here is my script :

Code:

#!/bin/bash
nmixer -q -s pcm=100
nmixer -q -s pcm2=70
#END

when i see my log, i finds this :

Code:

Error opening terminal: unknown.
Error opening terminal: unknown.

please help me solving that, thanks in advance

Maybe you want to try alsa utils with OSS support and use alsamixer and alsactl store to save your volumes.

So basically you set your volumes with alsamixer. Then runing alsactl store saves those volumes across reboots, so you don't have to put it into cron.
