Description Daniel Kinon 2012-04-20 19:18:52 UTC
1. Proposed title of this feature request

- need gnome mixer applet for rhel6

2. Who is the customer behind the request?
Account name:DreamWorks Animation SKG
Customer segment:1
TAM/SRM customer: yes (TAM=Heath Petty,Dan Kinon), SRM = David Shin
Strategic Customer: yes


3. What is the nature and description of the request?

mixer applet from rhel-5 built for rhel-6
This is required for volume control when using alsaloop since the current volume control applet uses pulse.

4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)
Require this in conjunction with new alsaloop functionality to push out RHEL6 in their desktop environment.
--customer comments--
"we'll be using alsaloop and not pulseaudio and our users are used to volume control using the mixer applet versus the alsamixer tui utility"


7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat bugzilla?

- No

8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies?

- Needed as soon as we have the kernel fixes in case: 00608626


10. List any affected packages or components.

- gnome-mixer-applet

11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

- Yes
