[Alsa-user] Can't Access ALSA Mixer

[Micah H. <mst...@ea...>]

I can't access the ALSA mixer.  I type in "alsamixer" in the
alsa-utils-0.9.0rc6/alsamixer dir, but I get
"alsamixer: command not found" from the Bash shell.  The contents of the
alsa-utils-0.9.0rc6/alsamixer dir are "alsamixer.1," "alsamixer.c,"
"Makefile.am," "Makefile.in," and "README."  Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks.
