uhuh ... not that I said it did, or anything. I run plain old Sarge.

Oh ... that's disappointing ... I quite like it. For me it's minimal, clean
and effective. It plays audio CDs very very well.

Well, I'd love to, but Amarok (1.2) fails to play audio CDs on my system (a
textbox containing "audiocd:/" appears, a dialog pops up saying "Could not
read /", and nothing else at all happens; and there is no config option to
specify the device to be used), while although Kaffeine (0.6) works, it has
an issue ... audio CD playback "stutters" - it suffers from intermittent
cutouts, every 5 to 10 seconds - they're only ~1 second long, but it's very
off-putting.
Amarok works fine with ogg & wav files (although the visualisations don't work
- a message appears saying "No Visualisations Found - Please install
libvisual and recompile" !).
Kaffeine works fine playing DVD movies - no stutters at all.
For audio CDs, I need KsCD - but maybe you're right, and I really don't :)
Thanks for the feedback.
Cheers,
Nick Boyce
