I don't know how well supported running both versions in parallel is, it may depend on which distro you use. Trinity is rock solid on Debian Squeeze, as long as I run the Trinity DE. Trinity apps can have issues when running under a different DE or WM, in my experience, Windowmaker. On Debian squeeze I use Okular from KDE4, Debians dependency matrix pulls in a 'ton' of KDE4 stuff, aka libs and such, just to run one app. I have lots of hardware resources so I don't mind... as long as nothing affects my Trinity install. Don't use amarok so no experience there. -- Peace, Greg
