-Q: Can I improve Amarok's startup time?
-A: Prelinking Amarok has spectacular results; however if you have binary openGL
-   drivers (eg Nvidia drivers), you will need to compile Amarok --without-opengl
-   in order to get the amarokapp binary to prelink (the amarok binary is not
-   important here).
