Ran the above command and uninstalled the version of amarok that was installed by Mandriva through the control centre. Then added the amarok site to urpm updates and installed any thing to do with the 1.4 beta version through MCC. When I ran amarok it gave this error msg: The Helix Engine requires the RealPlayer(tm) or HelixPlayer libraries to be installed. Please make sure one is installed, and adjust the paths in "amaroK Settings" -> "Engine" When I clicked on configure Amarok it then crashed out completely. I know that the helix and the xine engines were installed when I dl from control centre. Any ideas?
