Re: Sound problems

[Willem-Jan Meijer <meyer3@chello.nl>]

kdemultimedia packages weren't installed yet, I thougt this was a standard 
package, Set aRts soundserver, sound runs well now and indeed, XMMS crashses 
:( That's a pity, it looks better than noatun.

Is there a way to use XMMS and sound in KDE?

HTH,

Willem-Jan
