me and my stuff

Thanks for inotify-tools project, c library and set of command line programs for linux provide interface to inotify, that let me avoid from c code.

I upgrade two ibex last night and found few sound problems below First, on video file(mpg,avi ..), when right click and choose >open with >mplayer. will bring up error " [AO_ALSA] Unable to find simple control 'PCM',0 ".

[or you can do this by change 'softvol = "no"' to 'softvol = "yes"' in $HOME/.mplayer/gui.conf] Another sound issue is flash player on web[like youtube] not play sound. /var/log/message said pnix@pnix-a7n:_NHDT392$ tail -f /var/log/messages ...
