	It's probably bad form to respond to one's post, but here's
	the deal: while I *could* transfer audio data from one CD to my
	hard drive or elsewhere, I wantedt o use sound-juicer (like I did
	on my Ubuntu platform.  There, both gnome and kde both work.
	Until very recently, I assumed that the same rule applied to our
	OS as well.  But I have had to set up things to have evolution's
	icons be displayed on FBSD, and now this difficulty with the 
	audio app.  Is there some magic incantation that will let me use
	applications of either/or bothe Gnome and KDE?

	I use KDE primarily for one reason:: it has speech wirh
	konqueror.  firefox does not.  ANother reason is the KDE had
	seemed to have given people with disabilities more consideration.
	I'm not blind, but it helps to have an essay read back to me so I
	can hear the flubs.  &c.
