Howdi, Okay, first up, 2.4.2 is much much better than 2.4.2, and part of that for me was shifting back to an nVidia grunty desktop, from an intel-chipset laptop.
The following are all suffixed with a '... anyone else seeing this, and/or have any ideas on how to resolve?'. Sometime in the last several days, an update to unstable (looks like only some xserver bits and libraries I don't recognise) causes my desktop to lockup briefly, plasma/kwin crash, usually on flip-box task-switching (alt-tab). File-open dialogs now don't respect the single-click to navigate thru directories, select files, etc. This seemed to happen a few weeks back I think. Amarok 2 hit me, though this is possibly my own fault. It crashes consistently(!) every time I let it run for a few minutes, and it looks like it's about 3-5% of the way through indexing my audio collection. I fear this means it's a one-way street from the last version, short of snotting the amarok db and pushing back to testing versions of amarok. Audio collection is 93GB (1200 dirs, 17000 files, on a dm-crypted local fs). It also seems desperately eager to use gstreamer, which is installed on this box, but doesn't produce any actual noise (from the few minutes at a time that I can experiment with it). That'll do for now -- as usual, many thanks to anyone who can at least empathise or even better, offer some answers. ;) Jedd. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
