  I should have mentioned the related packages I have installed. This is 
my system

uhm... I'm actually under fluxbox, so you really have refer to specific 
  binary I need to run in order to get to those settings.

for instance, I see these provided by kdebase-runtime

$ rpm -q --filesbypkg kdebase-runtime | grep bin
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kcmshell4
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kde-cp
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kde-mv
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kde-open
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kde4
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kde4-menu
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kdebugdialog
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kdesu
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kfile4
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/khelpcenter
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/khotnewstuff4
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kiconfinder
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kioclient
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kmimetypefinder
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/knotify4
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kquitapp
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kreadconfig
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kstart
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/ksvgtopng
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/ktraderclient
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/ktrash
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kuiserver
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kwalletd
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/kwriteconfig
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/nepomukserver
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/nepomukservicestub
kdebase-runtime           /usr/bin/solid-hardware

but none of them allows me to configure phonon, as far as I can tell.

I'm running F9 x86_64 and F10 i386 on x86_64 hardware, should this matter.
