As I recall You are using some kind of build your
own linux distribution????
what are you using for sound card
drivers????
If you are using the alsa sound card drivers then
you should have the alsamixer.
it would have been created when you compiled
the alsa-tools package or alsa-utils package.
It is a mixer, like a music sound system would have
a mixer to adjust the sound levels from
various microphones and other audio
inputs.
The alsa documentation has lots of good stuff about
all the different parts.
What ever kernel module sound package you installed
should have a mixer. If you
look in the documentation for what ever sound
drivers you are using you should find info on the
mixer that goes with it.
aumix is the name of the original mixer used in the
redhat distributions before alsa came along.
It is the job of the mixer to control the volume of
the inputs and outputs to and from the sound card.
The mixer also controls which input is used to
"capture" audio.
I guess I assumed that because you were building
your own linux you would be a more advanced user.
We all had to start somewhere.
