It's -b 8, according to artsd --help. What I did to change it is use the
kde control center, then a kcmartsrc file is created with those settings.

KDE Control Center | Sound | Sound Server | Sound I/O | Sound Quality

 Known, see the updated control panel and xscreensaver on my web-space.
 http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~sbenedict
 
 update xscreensaver (rpm -Uvh)
 possibly uninstall gnome-pilot, gnome-control-center,
 gnome-control-center-plus (rpm -e)
 clean out /usr/share/control-center
 (first rpm -qif /usr/share/control-center, to make sure it's not owned
 by
 anything, then rm -fr /usr/share/control-center)
 install the new gnome-control-center (rpm -i)

Funny, after installing KDE, changing my background settings and the
like, wiping out my hard drive (except for /home ) and installing beta
2, I have only seen the bonobo-moniker-archiver crashing once... no more
crashes when I log in now... luck? I don't believe in luck, there must
be a setting somewhere that we have mis-look :-) (if one could use such
a word). who knows maybe a simple permission error, or a missing file
somewhere.

 A few Things I've noticed since I've installed mandrake on
 my powerbook.
  
  
 Gnome: Application bonibo-moniker-archiver Segfaults when
 gnome is starting just before nautilus begins.  (I'm left with the red
 root backround similar to KDE's.)   (if I try and access it through
 the gnome control panel same thing happens.)

 Sound: While a sound card was detected during the
 installation, at bootup it loads the sound module (dmasound_pmac), and
 there is a slight tick I can hear through the speakers at the point when
 it loads.  When gnome loads Application
 /usr/bin/sound-properties-control Segfaults, and Crashes.  

Same problem as above.

(if I start
 in KDE I get the error SNDCTL_DSP_SETMFT Failed -Invalid Argument, the
 sound server will continue to use the null output device.)
  

Switch artsd to 8 bit sound.

 Samba: At Startup Both SMB, and NMB services fail.   
  

Missing libattr1. Should be on the mirrors.
