I noticed it does that, but I couldn't find anything in any tray, or wherever, to actually GET to the running pgm. GM>> Also, you don't say what engine you are using in amarok and what GM>> sound card you have, but that could be a factor. It runs the aRts engine [default?]. When I try to change that to something else, it crashes. It might be that the inaccessible amarok was left over from such a crash. Sound is from the MBoard - Cmedia cm8738. GM>> I am actually a little confused, because at times when you said GM>> audacity, it seems like you meant amarok, and vice versa. Hmmm... yes... reviewing what I wrote, it seems as though I did put in the wrong name in referring to audacity instead of amarok - perhaps left the wrong word when pasting in. :-) Sorry for the confusion. Lemme try again: I'm trying to get some sound up on a box recently updated to 10.1. Using Amarok to play an mp3 file results in severely distorted sound, but xmms and Audacity seem to do OK. If I try to use another 'engine' in Amarok it crashes. Tried adjusting levels everywhere, but can't get good sound in Amarok. Any way to get rid of the distortion in Amarok? Addendum - the sound level from Amarok is quite a bit lower than the other apps, even with kmix at the max. Thanks.... -- rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
