[Bug 511676] Re: unixcw sends incorrect characters

[Kamal Mostafa]

This bug in 'cwlib' is caused by the invalid use of a mixer ioctl on the
soundcard audio device.  For most audio devices, the invalid ioctl is
harmless, but for some audio devices it prevents cwlib from properly
switching the volume on and off (which is how it generates Morse code).

I have fixed the bug in the attached branch, and created PPA update
packages for Karmic and Lucid, available here:

(Note also LP: #513942 and LP: #513957 -- audio devices affected by this
bug are likely to be affected by those as well).

** Branch linked: lp:~kamalmostafa/ubuntu/lucid/unixcw/fix-ioctl-and-
mute

** Changed in: unixcw (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Confirmed
