Adding commands to shutdown and reboot

[jvfc678]

I have no experience with the png you show for a Volume Control applet.

The one I use is the standard lxpanel applet supplied with Knoppix.
If missing, thie applet I use may be added with
Right Click lxpanel>Add/Remove Panel Items>Panel Applets>Volume Control>Add

You might try that.

That is the same one Im using on the image

This shows what I get with a right-click of the speaker symbol on my lxpanel.
I don't know what your .png applies-to.

..to change volume i just mess around with the LXDE plugin

It would be very helpfull not only draw a red frame around the symbol but also use the right mouseclick. The right mouseclick is the most important feature of the mouse.

If you did so, you'll get the option "Volume Controll" settings (alsamixer).

Read the manpage of alsamixer and try the effects with the keys F1 - F6 within this tool.

click of the speaker symbol

Thanks for the correction, Werner.

right-click gets choices, including alsamixer; left-click gets volume control.

Yes i know right-click opens the options menu and then there is a option called "Volume Control Settings" which opens up alsamixer, but not even that works... And you gave me a good idea about the manual page of alsamixer i didn't taught about that...
Also utu how did you took that screenshot of the volume plugin? When i tried to take it it just goes away lol, also mine one is in the wrong place, it dosen't stick to the panel, it floats a few pixels above the panel lol

the volume plugin... dosen't stick to the panel, it floats a few pixels above the panel...

I don't know about floating, but my left-click on the lxpanel speaker icon
gives a 'slider' control to change volume and a check-box to mute or un-mute.
This control appears just above the lxpanel; it requires another click
of the speaker icon to make this gui disappear.

A right-click of the lxpanel speaker icon gives an alsamixer gui in the upper-
left screen space. The alsamixer gui displays all the alsa parameters,
but also allows these to be changed either with the arrow & function keys
and to select functions or to change values, or check-boxes to mute or to
enable different audio system elements. Use frame controls to get rid of this gui.

FWIW, I find it comforting to bring up alsamixer by a command in an lxterminal
and then to use a left-click of the lxpanel speaker icon. Any changes made in this
way via the Volume Control gui are reflected immediately on the alsamixer gui.

In my case, whatever audio system changes are made as described here
are captured by persistence and are thus retained on reboot.
This is the Knoppix default situation as far as I am aware.

FWIW, It's possible to display both the AlsaMixer gui & the VolumeControl gui
from the lxpanel speaker icon alone, that is, without recourse to a separate
lxterminal command. And, esc is another way to close the AlsaMixer gui.

I actually found out how to take the picture I just set a delay, and open the plguin

Well that certainly dosen't happen to me

But that does happen to me, weird isn't it?

What i meant about the floating plugin is this:

And my card model is also in the picture

And a nice desktop it is.

The only thing that might explain what's happening is that you may have
installed an unnecessary new gui, that might be over-shadowing the default volume control.

You could start over with a noimage cheatcode to see if things behave differently now that
you know what to look for.

Or start over with a new LiveUSB, heaven forbid.

I didn't install any new GUIs, I only installed ALSAequal but that isn't the source of the problem because it did the same thing even when I didn't had any equalizer.
Also do you think it has to do with my card or driver that Im using like you saw in the screenshots? But i also don't think that is the case because i used the same flash disk i use
on the screenshots you saw earlier on my brothers laptop with a different card and the problem still persists. What it could be?
