Its done, I changed the soundserver in the K-Controlcenter from aRTS to ALSA. Then I typed in the shell SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa. I put this also into the .bashrc of my user. Then it works.
BUT, which is really disturbing is that it still takes almost one minute to start!!! That means, I start it via shell or via K-Menu at than a black screen appears and stays for more than one minute before NWN starts. This doesn't happend as long I used Woody. There NWN startet immediately. This shows who many system overhaed we got in KDE 3.X. Or what do think is the reason for that? And it is the same installation! I used the installer from ravage for NWN under Woody. Than I saved the whole NWN-directory in another partition and rewrite it after the sarge upgrade. But maybe this is the also the reason for the delay?????
