Re: newbie trying to install an application
Hi,
You might want to try aumix as a mixer program. It is a very simple and
straightforward text based program. Simply do an apt-get install aumix
and then just run aumix in the console or in an xterm and turn up the
volume for the cd.
Hope that helps,
Bijan Soleymani
