Hi all,
I've been trying to install a system tray volume control and I've run into a bit of a problem. Most of the system tray volume controllers have a line somewhere that lists the available mixers as such this one in volti's mixer.py:116
for card_index, card_name in enumerate(self.acards):
...
for count, mixer in enumerate(alsa.mixers(card_index)):
...
My thinkpad has three cards, 'Intel', 'NVidia', and 'ThinkPadEC'. The last card, 'ThinkPadEC', has no mixers. When mixers(2) is called for this card an exception is thrown:
alsaaudio.ALSAAudioError: No such file or directory
I've gotten around this problem by simply qualifying every call to mixers() with an
if card_index > 1: continue
however this is hardly an elegant solution.
Any suggestions?
