Re: mp3 Player

I followed your suggestion to the letter and no luck. In fact, when I 
tried to transfer an mp3, KDE crashed. Not just once, but 3 times! On 
the 3rd crash, I had to hit ctrl-alt-backspace to get everything to 
close. Of course, I had to re-log in as a result.

Any ideas as to what went wrong?
