Hello Marek,

	Here is how I use the new media kit.

	Go to BeBits and download the audio mixer http://www.bebits.com/app
/3794

	expand it out.

	delete the files in the data directory (leave the scripts alone)

	Create links in the data directory to the Haiku media kit files
		libmedia.so
		media_addon_server
		media_server
		mixer_media_addon
		
	You will also need to copy/link the plugins directory into /boot/
beos/system/add-ons/media/plugins

	Then run the script install.sh

	This will create a seperate directory that has a runserver.sh and 
an uninstall.sh

	Run the server with the script and everything is up an running.

	To remove just quit the media_server and then run the uninstall.sh

Cheers
David

PS 	I am of course open to better methods. ;-)
