Any other special or non-generic installation instructions should be described below as special instructions. The following example installs a patch to a standalone machine: example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/104945-02 The following example removes a patch from a standalone system: example# patchrm 104945-02 For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages. Special Install Instructions: ----------------------------- This patch provides programs that change the speaker volume when the audio control keys are pressed on a Sun keyboard. To use these programs, the user's window manager needs to be configured to call them when the keys are pressed. Patch 108921-03 (or newer) include modifications to the system configuration files for the CDE window manager to make the audio control keys call these programs. However, users using localized or customized versions of the dtwm configuration files (including users who have used CDE with the Solaris Desktop Extensions installed) will have to add the following three lines to their $HOME/.dt/$LANG/dtwmrc file in the "Keys DtKeyBindings" section: SunAudioMute root|icon|window|ifkey f.exec /usr/dt/appconfig/sdtvolctl/muteVolume SunAudioRaiseVolume root|icon|window|ifkey f.exec /usr/dt/appconfig/sdtvolctl/volumeUp SunAudioLowerVolume root|icon|window|ifkey f.exec /usr/dt/appconfig/sdtvolctl/volumeDown
