[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#309337: alsa-utils: Redline depends on terminal height

[Harri Haataja]

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.8-4
Severity: minor


I noticed that that running alsamixer on a 50-line xterm, red appears on
my volume controls between 79 and 81. On a 24-line xterm, it appears
between 71 and 73. This seems slightly odd, though I don't know if
there's any way to tell what PC soundcard mixers happen to put out. :)

The card from lspci:

0000:00:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 08)
	Subsystem: Ensoniq Creative Sound Blaster AudioPCI64V, AudioPCI128
	Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 3
	I/O ports at b000 [size=64]
	Capabilities: <available only to root>
