Kdemultimedia provides several KDE programs to work with sound. Programs include applications for a Jukebox, a soundcard mixer, a midi and karaoke player, and a recording application for aRts.
In this version of Kdemultimedia, some of the functionality provided by the package has been moved off into a separate project named Akode. In order for Kdemultimedia to provide the removed functionality, you must install the Akode package first. Instructions to install Akode follow. If you wish to skip the Akode installation, go straight to the Kdemultimedia Instructions.
