Re: [gentoo-user] aRts sound server on KDE 3.5.2?

[Claudinei Matos]

Hi Michael,

I give oss-emulation backend a try in arts configuration and it really works
for me (now I can run noatun again), but you said u're using xine-backend as
amarok engine without arts. Well, I did tried to use gstreammer with amarok
but there's a problem with the gst mad library (a friend using ubuntu has
the same problem) so I give a try to xine but anytime when I try to choose
xine as the  engine amarok give me the follow message: "xine was unable to
initialize any audio-drivers".
Could you please give me a advice about this setup? I can't wait to get back
using amarok :)

tks,
