I own an Averatec 3200 series laptop which I have dropped down a flight stairs (it still works). When this happened, the knob on the front which allows you to control the volume of the speakers had fallen out, so now i have incredibly quiet sound whn i hav the OS volume all the way up. Does any body know if i can override the default KDE/GNOME volume controls to make it louder? thanks

hate to say it but the order is hardware then software your actuall hardware controls this first and is modified by the software you have to take care of the hardware issue only alternative would be to use apt or google to find an application or control applet that boosts the signal
I would try something like sound boost unnder synaptics searh functions or whatever package manager you are using
make sure you search inquiry is set for name and description some versions of synaptic defaulted to just name
