Dear experts,
right now I'm watching a Youtube movie and the sound is on and at maximum in the browser.
On my Thinkpad T60 I have also pressed the volume up hardware button as often as possible.
Now I'm curious if there are some advanced sound settings, so I can check if the sound level is really at maximum or if I can make it even louder.
Operating system is Debian Linux Jessie 8.6(?) 32-bit and it's up-to-date :rolleyes:
Window manager: XFCE4

What GUI volume control is available depends on your window manager.
You could also try alsamixer / amixer in console.

Great! Both commands worked. Thanks. Now I just need to find out how to adjust the volume in the console
My window manager is XFCE4, somehow I can't find any simple and suitable application. Gotta apt-cache search

EDIT: alsamixergui
works!
Not sure if " Applications Menu -> Multimedia -> Audio Mixer
" was there before I've installed alsamixergui (
However, problem solved.
