Hi all,
I just ran into this again: Where can I change the volume incerment/decremet value?
My situation is this:
kmix: mousewheel changes volume by 5 for the onboard soundcard, but by 10 for the PCI/USB soundcard. volume keys: change volume always by 10.
T60: kmix & volume keys: I can set the inc/dec value kcontrol/system/IBM and it works as it should.
So ... is there a way for non-thinkpads to set the volume increment/decrement value somewhere?

Would that be with ALSA, PulseAudio, or ?

there's the terminal-based alsamixer, or you might try this (i haven't):

Hi Nik, volume inc/dec intervals are by default 10% and 1%. ault, 1% is if you press Ctrl together with the keys to change the volume. You can customize the values by editing kmilodrc and changing the values of volumeStepFast and volumeStepSlow in the "generic monitor" section. https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdeutils/src/branch/master/k...
For some laptop model there are customized kmilo files and Thinkpad is one of them. I guess that is why you can set the increment on that machine but not on the other.
Cheers Michele

It is not a program. It is a package
Description: laptop special keys support for Trinity KMilo lets you use the special keys on some keyboards and laptops. . Usually this includes volume keys and other features. Currently, KMilo comes with plugins for Powerbooks, Thinkpads, Vaios and generic keyboards with special keys. . This package is part of Trinity, as a component of the TDE utilities module. See the 'tde-trinity' and 'tdeutils-trinity' packages for more information.

Is there (maybe in the Wiki) a cross-reference list showing what components and/or packages contain what programs?

I am not sure about it, but most likely it is not responsible, because it handles the special keys (multimedia, brightness etc.)
I tried to uninstall it, but it wants to remove tde-trinity...
this is OK, because tde-trinity is meta package that depends on kmilo. You could uninstall, test and reinstall tde-trinity

Don't think so. It binds to these keys: https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdeutils/src/branch/master/k...
I had the "keys-doe-interesting-stuff" some years ago with vlc, but never could track it down. Starting with a clean user profile solved it, bit I don't know if purging all GTK configs would also do the trick.

The reason I asked is because, while it's easy to find a file if one knows the package, it's hard to find the package just knowing the file.

It is not sooo hard. For example if I want to find the package providing
/opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1
I would
$ dpkg -S /opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1 kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1
The main problem is to know where to look for.
Also note that the legacy package is to be used only for specific models and can cause issues. I wouldn't use it unless I have some of the specified models.

On a Devuan system this is a method to find the package in which a file/program is distributed:
$ apt-file search kmilo # (output trimmed) kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1 kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1.0.0 kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/kded_kmilod.la kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/kded_kmilod.so kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/kmilo_generic.la kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/kmilo_generic.so kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/share/services/kded/kmilod.desktop kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/share/services/kmilo/kmilo_generic.desktop kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/share/servicetypes/kmilo/kmilopluginsvc.desktop kmilo-trinity: /usr/share/doc/kmilo-trinity/changelog.Debian.gz kmilo-trinity: /usr/share/doc/kmilo-trinity/copyright
There might be a similar tool in OpenSUSE.

Hi Nik, volume inc/dec intervals are by default 10% and 1%. ault, 1% is if you press Ctrl together with the keys to change the volume. You can customize the values by editing kmilodrc and changing the values of volumeStepFast and volumeStepSlow in the "generic monitor" section. https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdeutils/src/branch/master/k...
For some laptop model there are customized kmilo files and Thinkpad is one of them. I guess that is why you can set the increment on that machine but not on the other.
Hi Michele,
I have kmilo-trinity 14.1.0 installed. In the binary I find "volumeStep", but not "volumeStepFast" or "volumeStepSlow". And I did a dist-upgrade yesterday.
Pressing <ctrl>+<voldown> decreases by one, but <ctrl>+<volup> brings up the volume OSD, but does nothing.
Should I revert back to 14.0.x ?
This is my ~/.trinity/share/config/kmilodrc:

Hi Nik,
I don't think you need to revert back, it must be a matter of keyboard shortcut settings. You just need to find the one using that key combination.
