Version: 1.5.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.0) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux I upgraded from KDE 3.4 to KDE 3.5 via YaST (using mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.3/yast-source/) Now I get a crash from the artsd sound system whenever a sound is attempted. For example, clicking on Test Sound in the KDE Control Center causes this. ================= crash backtrace =========================================== (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1".

From #116730 " It seems SuSE has decided to remove MP3 support from the default KDE packages due to patent concerns. This is all well and fine, but they should have made it more obvious that MP3 support has been moved to another package. Installing the kdemultimedia3-arts-mad and kdemultimedia3-mad RPMs has fixed this problem, and artsd no longer crashes. " *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 116730 ***
Yes, this fixed the problem for me. Thanks.
I have the same problem on uname -a : Linux Gondor 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 #1 SMP Fri Nov 10 12:45:28 EST 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
