It's probably because the latest version you installed is for KDE 4.1, not KDE 3.5.10, and does not show up in the KDE 3.5.10 kicker menu (K Menu > Applications > Multimedia). If you enter the following command as root in a Terminal window:

Code: Select all

equo search amarok

you'll see there are two versions available in the Entropy repository: media-sound/amarok-1.4.10-r1 and media-sound/amarok-1.90-r1. The former is for KDE 3.5.10 and the latter is for KDE 4.1. All you need to do (as root in a Terminal window) is:

Code: Select all

equo remove amarok
equo install media-sound/amarok-1.4.10-r1

and you'll get the version of Amarok for KDE 3.5.10, which will show up in K Menu > Applications > Multimedia.
