After the recent upgrade to kdemultimedia 3.2.2 playback of mp3 sound files was badly distorted on my system. I downgraded libarts1-mpeglib and mpeglib_4 to 3.2.1 and sound is fine again. Does anyone have the same problem? Michael -- Michael Schuerig Face reality and stare it down mailto:michael@schuerig.de --Jethro Tull, Silver River Turning http://www.schuerig.de/michael/
