I see. Hal is not installed any way (got automatically removed
yesterday). Some related libs remain, however. deborphan doesn't list
them, so for now I will trust aptitude to have good reason to keep those.

I noticed that. But I can't make head nor tail of it at this point. The
only thing that irks me is that gnome's nautilus pops up everytime I
insert a blank disc while running KDE. Could that be a problem? Don't
know, since I have been able to burn audio cd from mp3 a few times in
the last week.

I will try it again. Meanwhile, I was able to burn the same track after
converting them to wav using soundconvertor.
