1 This is exactly what I am wanting to do. But I see that it will end up not
2 allowing me to use system notifications. I found this link on the bug
3 report.
4 But I am not at all sure how to apply it.
5 Thanks very much!

7 The genkdesvn ebuilds use a patch that allows notifications and sounds
8 through external player even when kdelibs is compiled with --without-arts.
9 Some of us(atleast one person other than me) have been using the patch since
10 2 months and have experienced no problems. Mario(the author of the ebuilds)
11 even modified the patch to allow simultaneous sounds(the new kernels support
12 this). Here is a link to the patch.
