I use a small shell script which reads the current volume and changes
it incrementally. As explained in the manpage you should specify your
own commands with the command-line options, for example:

  i8kbuttons -u "aumix -v +10" -d "aumix -v -10" -m "aumix -v 0"

Thanks.  I'm using something like this now, but I was hoping to find a
program that could toggle the mute rather than just dropping the
volume to 0.  I'll figure out a work-around.


All the best,

I use gkrellm with gkrellvolume plugin. I send a SIGUSR1 to gkrellm, and
it toggles mute.
