 ==> Note:  
     Instructional workstations do not have external speakers, unless 
     an instructor has requested them for a specific use.  Students are 
     advised to bring their own headphones.


Audio on the Solaris X86 (PC) workstations
------------------------------------------

  On the X86 systems running Solaris in 275 Soda, you can control the audio
  of the headphone jack with the command 
  
 	 /usr/bin/gnome-volume-control

  For help:

	man gnome-volume-control

  On the DELL X86 systems in 275 Soda, you can plug headphones into the 
  green audio input connector along the bottom of the back of the computer. 
  (Unfortunately, you cannot use the more convenient connector on the front 
  of the computer.)


Audio on the Solaris SPARC (SunRay) workstations 
------------------------------------------------

  On the SunRays xterminals running Solaris, you can control the audio
  of the headphone jack with the command 

	/opt/SUNWut/bin/utsettings

  For help:

	man -M /opt/SUNWut/man utsettings


Audio on the Windows systems
----------------------------
  The MS Windows systems typically have RealPlayer, CD Player, Volume 
  Control and Media Player installed.
