I need to learn more about kmilo. Is . I think mostly the way these are supposed to work is via the fancy XF86 keys these days - but the OSD seems to be the stickler.

Regarding that kmilo provides an OSD that is very nice, and i see they do it for brightness as well. However, should such things be centralized? i do not know. I dont have a good view on it. It seems nice that they would all act the same, brightness, volume, etc. Perhaps that should be more pluggable or maybe if we decide to drop kmixer as default we make kmilo focus on tmix.
It seems a lot to ask to add DCOP, then get tmix to listen to it etc, all just so a global hotkey which already works - works within kmilo.
I may have something regarding this, but ATM I am too busy to test it. It builds fine and the multimedia keys were passed to tmix and I saw the sliders moving up/down in tmix and the volume was going up/down. However because kmilo has kmix hardcoded it was still spawning kmix. I then tried to fix kmilo (make it dependent on what mixer is used) and it builds also well, but until next Sunday it seems I will not be able to test. If there is someone willing to review and test the code I could push the branches to TGW ... but I would prefer to test and polish myself before applying for review.
