Dear Members,

I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and I have recently been sent these instructions of how to purge pulse audio in order to install xine:

type the following in a terminal:

sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio

this will remove the packages. The open the system settings, go to the
multimedia option and push the pulseaudio entry to the bottom (it will remain
there, even if pulseaudio is removed)

Then , again on a terminal, type:
rm ~/.kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc

Then restart KDE, it should work.

NOW MY QUESTIONS:

I cannot find what is meant by System, in order to push pulseaudio to the bottom of the list.  Pleae explain how I do this in Ubuntu.
Also, how do I restart KDE?  I cannot find any program or option called KDE in Ubuntu.

I would also like to know how to install Xine.  When I go to Sinaptic Package Manager, and do a search for xine, many options come up, such as xine-ui, xinetd, xine-dbg, ligxine etc, and I am not sure which of those to select in order to install xine.

Thanks very much.
