Jeez, I really didn't want a war with Aramok lovers. Don't know about 2 sound cards because I disabled my onboard that I don't need anyway. My keyboard is configured to do tricks too! I did it through gnome. I have my music arranged in folders by Album so easy to play what I want. Right click I get some mp3info available, playlist displays artist, album,track, time.

Aramok's the world greatest mp3 player for Linux. Is it still supported?

I was just pointing out that Amarok uses standard libs also, and that mplayer is not a library. FYI, I don't use Amarok, although I keep up with it's development. I think Amarok is a great program. However, it is too heavy weight for my taste and I don't need all that eye candy. I personally use mpd on the backend and a simple GNUstep frontend called MPDCon- I am a Stepper.
