Re: ALSA-only purists: Question, new GUI app for the mixer and EQ?

Yes, I'd like to try it. Thanks. My first attempt will be to build it for "all" arch.

Edit: changed "any" to "all" after checking what I usually do.

Cool beans! I just now uploaded the new version 2.1-0 to Sourceforge it has the new script and some updated info:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/vuu-do … /AlsaTune/

Give it some of that Refracta magic!

Crap, lost my build-depends file, been messing with this for months, so if I remember correctly:

libasound2-dev
libgtk-3-dev
libglib2.0-dev

Compile:

 gcc -o mxeq mxeq.c $(pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-3.0 alsa glib-2.0) -Wall

There's cymbals! I hear cymbals!!! I've been listening to this on the computer for so long I forgot there was a drummer in the group.

So yeah, it compiles and runs on i386 architecture. I didn't make a package. I just copied files into place and ran the postinstall script. At first the equalizer wasn't working. Then I read the README and then I googled to find 'alsamixer -D equal' which did work. After that, the AlsaTune equalizer worked.

It nice to have the volume and frequency sliders all available in the same window. Let's talk about packaging in real time.
