It means that you have a bit newer phonon available supposed to be source and 
binary backwards compatible with phonon 4.1 as shipped with qt4.4.

I have myself written a small media player without any problems. Please be 
more verbose.

phonon is not disabled. phonon is just built from phonon source package, the 
real upstream of phonon. Qt just embeds a copy of it.

Man, how to insert on the GUI from the folder menu within Office NT?

You either should receive a shell, or should turn off a driver to remove from
