was running into problems like this with amarok. did 2 things: 1. as found on another post about amarok gone bad, ran $ xine-check this gave a few warnings. In particular, I had been trying to fix the amarok problem and had removed the libxine-dev package. bad. So I reinstalled the suggested packages until xine-check no longer griped too much. 2. I checked what groups I was in! I was only in the admin and [myusernameasagroup] groups. I added myself to the audio group $ sudo /usr/sbin/usermod -G audio username $ newgrp audio $ amarok & This worked like a charm. Note that I thought of this only b/c I've had some problems of late on my Gentoo box with upgrades to the pam packages and stuff. I am guessing that I did something similar, perhaps, on this kubuntu box.
Just a thought. Works for me. -- Amarok will not start in Kubuntu Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149936 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to amarok in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
