Thanks Susan, Gustin and Tobias :)

the first thing after installing KDE was, that I disabled system sound
and arts, so I can't disable it by kcontrol because it's still disabled
:(. Almost no one will system sound for a DAW. Yesterday I tried
different multimedia players. The players I usually use are set to use
ALSA or Jack.

One of those players must have started arts. So it always can be, that
if I'm careless, some KDE application starts arts.

I might run every KDE application now and check out if it starts arts
and if so, I could change the preferences.

What I'm looking for is a way that arts never can start.

artsshell -q terminate seems to be assimilable to kill, what I did when I 
noticed that arts was running.

I'm thinking of deleting artsd in /usr/bin, because I can't do this by Synaptic 
without removing KDE, but this seems to be a inelegant solution.

I'm using KDE because with GNOME I'm missing a lot of applications, not only 
K3b. I also need the KDE of Lenny, because this computer is a DA'n'VideoW, that 
does not mean that everything is Lenny.

For example, if I do a right click on a video, I can convert it because of 
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Kvm+(Kde+Video+Menu)?content=50959, if 
it would be possible to have multimedia applications like this for GNOME, that 
would be nice, but I never heard about it. Also I wish to have a good file 
browser like Konqueror and things like the Klipper.

I'm using KDE because it's a DAW and it should be really a "workstation". If I 
will run out of resources, I will use Ion instead of GNOME, KDE etc., because 
this really don't need much resources.

For me GNOME isn't a good choice for a DAW, because it needs a lot of resources 
and has no comfort, that is suitable for a DAW.

64 Studio 2.1 is fine, but why shouldn't I use the whole functionality of 
Linux, applications Microsoft has not. There is enough stuff Apple and 
Microsoft have got, that Linux hasn't. IMO GNOME isn't a good DE and I don't 
think 64 Studio will be unstable because of running KDE ;), even if there will 
be no arts.

Cheers,
Ralf
