Hello list,

Config:
Xubuntu 14.04 + LTSP 5.5.1

i would like to start a rdp session instead of ldm. So in lts.conf I changed SCREEN_07 from ldm to rdesktop.

So far its working but there is a little problem. The sound settings are not loud enough.

Is there a way to tell the client to start at a 100% sound volume or even a 200% one?

Would be great if there is a way.

Best regards
Martin

apt-get install ltsp-docs

man lts.conf

Look at the section "SOUND AND VOLUME CONTROL PARAMETERS".

I'll note that arbitrary variable names depending on your sound card may
be needed, if it doesn't implement the "standard" types documented
there. Essentially setting XYZ_VOLUME will set the volume control for
the XYZ channel.

I think 100% is the max.

Hello,

i tried these setting but they dont work. My test user always have a volume of 33%.

In the ltsp default volume is 90 but not for me or it just doesn’t work.

For me is important that in a rdp session which starts right away (SCREEN_07=rdesktop.....) is louder.

Bash.bashrc worked but only in the ldm session but not if I start rdesktop right away.

Is there something else what I could use?

Best regards

What did you try exactly?

What are the channels available to your client's sound card:

amixer --card=1 scontrols
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0
Simple mixer control 'Speaker',0
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
Simple mixer control 'Mic',0
Simple mixer control 'Mic Boost',0
Simple mixer control 'Beep',0
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
Simple mixer control 'Auto-Mute Mode',0
Simple mixer control 'Internal Mic',0
Simple mixer control 'Internal Mic Boost',0

So, the corresponding lts.conf values would be MASTER_VOLUME,
HEADPHONE_VOLUME, SPEAKER_VOLUME, etc. Some of them are not strictly
volume controls. You might be able to decipher the output of "amixer
--card=1 scontents" to get more information.

It may have multiple sound cards. You may need to try this for each
card, "amixer --card=0 scontents", --card=2, etc. Although I'm noticing
the code doesn't handle different volume settings for each card...

I've also been experiencing unusual results with setting the volume with
some quick experimentation on Debian Jessie... Setting VOLUME=30 gets me
14% speaker volume, VOLUME=90 gets 96%, VOLUME=200 or VOLUME=120 gets
100%, VOLUME=20 gets 10% ... so apparently soemthing is amiss, but it is
possible to adjust the volume.

So I would suggest adjusting the VOLUME= above 100 to see if you can't
get the volume setting you want...
