retain volume setting on reboot
I found an irritating thing with dingux (irritating to me anyways): it doesn't retain the volume settings. So if I mute it one day to play games and reboot it (for any reason such as to turn it off) it forgets the volume setting you had previously. So I wrote up a little script to do this automagically. Instructions included in the zip:

I'm kind of a Linux n00b. But do I need Linux for my PC OS to edit the local/sbin/main. If so, is there anyone who has that file already edited that I could download?
Thanks
My advice, if you want to edit "main", download something like notepad++. What are you wanting to modify in main thought? Most things should be already configured in there with the latest toddler distro...

EDIT:
So I installed Dingux last night with the most recent local.zip (it was warpedflash's I believe). You're saying that it will keep the volume setting and I don't need to edit or replace files?
Ok, replaced current local with Toddler's local and it sounds good. Thanks for the help.
Anytime. I am glad to help. Also, the above stuff isn't needed anymore as it is now part of toddler's release. Not sure if warpflash is using it or not... I just wrote it because it bothered me that the volset lacked that feature and it was a quick and dirty (and easy) fix to do using a shell script. I'm just glad that people are enjoying my "work" (if you can call it that).
Feel free to ask me any other questions you may have... I may be able to help... or I may be able to point you in the right direction...

small bug in that... in the readvol, it requires the lastvol file to exist in the local/apps/volset/ folder. And that file must contain an integer between 0 and 100. Haven't tested how bad this bug will affect things... I imagine that volset is programmed to handle null input, but if this file is missing it will error.
Fix it later.
