Pump Up The Volume

Recently I had a problem with the sound level on my EEE PC, which for no apparent reason went rather quiet. A trawl through the forumsfound the solution. What you need to do to remedy this grievous state of affairs is to take the following steps.
  • Enter <ctrl><alt>T to open a command console window.
  • Type alsamixer to bring up the sound card control panel.
  • Use the up arrow to increase the PCM level, which is the first bar displayed.
  • Celebrate by jacking in some power speakers and playing some Motorhead really loud.
An alternative solution would be to boost your hearing with the aid of some bionics, though you'll need to find Rudy Wells first. We have the technology.....
