<h2><a name="overview">Overview</a></h2>

<p>PulseAudio Volume Control (<tt>pavucontrol</tt>) is a simple GTK
based volume control tool ("mixer") for the <a
href="http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/pulseaudio/">PulseAudio
sound server</a>. In contrast to classic mixer tools this one allows
you to control both the volume of hardware devices and of each
playback stream seperately.</p>

<p>Everybody loves <a href="@PACKAGE_URL@/screenshot.png">screenshots</a>.</p>

<h2><a name="status">Current Status</a></h2>

<p>Works perfectly.</p>
  
<h2><a name="documentation">Documentation</a></h2>

<p>There is not much to say. Just run <tt>pavucontrol</tt> and see for yourself.</p>

<h2><a name="requirements">Requirements</a></h2>

<p>Currently, <tt>pavucontrol</tt> is tested on Linux only.</p>

<p><tt>pavucontrol</tt> was developed and tested on Debian GNU/Linux
"testing" from April 2006, it should work on most other Linux
distributions (and maybe Unix versions) since it uses GNU autoconf for
source code configuration.</p>

<p><tt>pavucontrol</tt> requires <a href="http://gtkmm.sf.net/"><tt>gtkmm</tt></a> and <tt>glademmm</tt> installed.</p>

<p>Obviously <tt>pavucontrol</tt> requires an installation of <a href="http://pulseaudio.org/">PulseAudio</a> (version 0.9.5).</p>

<h2><a name="installation">Installation</a></h2>

<p>As this package is made with the GNU autotools you should run
<tt>./configure</tt> inside the distribution directory for configuring
the source tree. After that you should run <tt>make</tt> for
compilation and <tt>make install</tt> (as root) for installation of
<tt>pavucontrol</tt>.</p>

<h2><a name="acks">Acknowledgements</a></h2>

<p>None so far.</p>
