Perhaps someone should add a note.
I thin there is right at the bottom of the page. But I will make a more
noticible note.
professional system or not, I would expect it to be
capable running
browser and mp3 player at the same time (even though I would not
expect >this
capability to be used in studio work).
AFAIK this is possible if you use kde or gnome as your desktop and don't
mind having artsd block the interface. Many other desktops support artsd
also but they are usually not installed by default. Hence anyone who can
install an alternative desktop should also be willing to get the sound
server running if they desire that functionality. This has been the case
for at least the past three years.
