I am pleased to announce the release of xmmix version 1.2.
Xmmix is a sound mixer utility for the X Window System using the
OSF/Motif interface.  It requires the Unix Sound System (formerly
"VoxWare") sound driver by Hannu Savolainen (hannu@voxware.pp.fi),
also known as the Linux sound driver.  See notes below about how to
get the sound driver.

This version of xmmix has been tested by the author with the
sound driver version 2.4, 2.5, 2.90, 3.0 and 3.5.  It is expected
to work with earlier and future versions.

The OS platforms supported by xmmix is the same as those supported
by the sound driver, which includes several UNIX variants for the
Intel x86 PC:

	Linux
	FreeBSD
	NetBSD
	Interactive (ISC) UNIX
	SCO UNIX and Open Desktop
	UNIX SVR4.2 (Novell UnixWare and others)

Likewise, the sound cards supported by xmmix are those that
the sound driver supports.  Currently, this includes most
of the popular sound cards.


WHERE TO GET XMMIX

WHERE TO GET THE SOUND DRIVER
-----------------------------

Linux systems come with the sound driver.  Refer to your Linux
documentation about configuring the sound driver.  You may also
