    Introduction

    Although, Amarok is one the most well-known KDE application, it can run on other desktop environments too. This section shows how Amarok can be used on non-KDE desktops.

    GNOME

    To configure the proxy for Amarok on GNOME, modify and add this

    [Proxy Settings][$i]
    ProxyType=1
    httpProxy=http://username:password@proxyserver:port/
    httpsProxy=http://username:password@proxyserver:port/
    ftpProxy=http://username:password@proxyserver:port/
    

    to ~/.kde/share/config/kioslaverc

    Enlightenment

    The Amarok systray icon does not work by default with E17. So, one should disable the Show tray icon from General Options in Preferences.

    XFCE


    To launch Amarok faster, enable Launch KDE services on startup by going into Settings -> Advanced and checking the option.

    Fluxbox

    LXDE

    In case Amarok starts slowly in LXDE, you can add kdeinit to the startup applications using the lxsession-edit command.
