Gmixer in AUR

Just wanted to let you all know that I've put Mehdi Abaakouk's (the guy who develops Listen music player) Gmixer volume control in to the AUR.
You can find it here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26068
I'm using it in lxpanel on Openbox, but it works fine in other panels with systrays, and in trayer, etc.
It's light weight using python-gtk, and gstreamer, and is prettier, and has more options than lxpanel's volume control.  It's comparable to gnome-volume-mixer, without the gnome depends. 
Run it with gmixer -d at start up (or whenever) and the applet shows up in your systray.

Version 1.3 out.  Fixes a problem with the systray slider not working.
