You don't NEED to make any changes to settings.pro if you don't
want the features the different sections implement.  ALSA can be
uncommented and either used or not used.  Same with XvMC.
These are configuration driven.  I have ARTS on my Mandrake
9.1 installation but Myth won't compile with ARTS enabled.  I
don't think there is a config option for ARTS, it's either enabled
and used or not enabled.  YMMV, but if you don't have a real
need for a feature that cannot be configured out later, you
probably don't want to enable it.

One man's opinion.  HTH!
