I have installed the upgrade to Exaile that Mandriva pushed out this weekend. Since then it dies immediately after starting most of the time (always when started from menu, sometimes when started from an xterm). The output on the xterm if it crashes is:

exaile.py: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.0.

The initial python errors have always been there (also before upgrade) and never prevented normal functioning. The mp3 referenced in the last but one line is one which plays normally with mpg123, i.e. not corrupt, is accessible by me etc.

Thanks scarecrow ... gnome-settings-daemon was (surprisingly) not installed (I use XFce as desktop, some key apps such as mail & browser do not rely too much on Gnome, hence I hadn't noticed befroe the absence of gnome-settings-daemon). Installed it and this part works; I am still no further with the absence of ways to get information on a track such as lyrics or wikipedia stuff, nor do I have a button to rate tracks in top-right hand corner. One step at the time...

OK. You may have to check on XFCE4 settings "start gnome services at startup" if you want exaile to work properly. I'm also using XFCE4 (mainly), and I have this checked as I'm forced to use gdm as login manager (unfortunately slim is currently totally broken, and most probably unmaintainable).

You will also need dbus-python and pyinotify, else the library will not be updated in realtime.
