Re: Re: Changing volume in Linux with Perl?

[PipTigger]

Actually I have in fact read almost everything at that linq before too... the problem is that the method described there is basically what the aumix C-code I already have does. Is there an equivalent to 'sys/ioctl.h' in Perl? Is there a way to manipulate /dev/mixer properly without compiling C? If not, aumix will suffice but it'd be nice to do it right in Perl if possible. Maybe it'd make a great CPAN module too. We'll see. Thanks. TTFN.

Have a look at ioctl for a way to roll your own in perl. I agree that this would make a handy CPAN module when you get it working. Good luck!
