Re: [LAU] KDE4 observations + an easy question

 Yeah, it looks nicer (unless you're on a netbook) but I've simply
 found it significantly less stable, with too many irritating bugs
 hanging around in core apps.

 I do understand that the direction they're heading means it's
 going to be better - one day - and that the audio fundamentals
 being re-engineered now are going to make a vast improvement
 too.

 As I mentioned in another post I just made, I'm still getting
 weird performance issues using jack as my primary device,
 and this is on a very grunty, and quite relaxed, machine.

 Probably - though I'm not hip with the nomenclature yet. ;)

 An interface where I could press a || style button that paused
 advancement of the track but didn't pause the audio output, is
 what I'm really after. In my old age I've become much more of
 a 'give me a button' rather than 'give me a mechanism' kind of guy.

 cheers,
 Jedd.
