Hi there. I just found the great programm KZenExplorer on
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=22769
It is a KDE-program to manage your Creative Jukebox (Zen touch in my case) and features drag`n`drop.
I found it really helpful, no more need to use Gnomad2 and half of the gnome-libs :)
BTW, I had big compiling issues, cause it is not in portage, so someone has to compile it by hand.
Fortunately, the developer gave me a hand on getting it started :O ,so i want to share how we did it:

First of all, get it downloaded and extracted to some subdir. The *usual* way of
Code:

 ./configure && make && make install

did not work for me, cause make complained about *no kde-headers found*
After searching around here, i found the hint to try:
Code:

./configure  --prefix=/usr/kde/3.4/

After that, make still failed, but the nice guy who made KZenExplorer told me to do
Code:

make -f Makefile.cvs

first.
This turned out to work for me. Because i've got no arts installed, the whole installation procedure would look like:
Code:

cd /kzenexplorer-0.6_rc1
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure  --without-arts --prefix=/usr/kde/3.4/
make
make install

That's all. If for some reason, compiling fails for you, run make distclean between the different attempts.
Also note to set the correct KDE-version in the prefix.
I hope someone finds this useful to get this program started.
Have fun, Marcus
