pindakoe Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 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: INFO : Loading Exaile 0.2.99.2... INFO : Loading settings INFO : Loading plugins...

Greg2 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Have you updated exaile since Monday? Revision: 383805 Patch2: fix support for pyinotify It would be exaile-0.3.0-0.a2.4mdv2009.1 It's working fine for me, and I can't reproduce your problem.

pindakoe Posted June 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 yes I did. Since I updated I have this problem (say 100% when started from menu, 75% when started from CLI). I strongly suspect the update is to blame as this behaviour only started since the update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 If running gnome, just check what the above complain about: if gnome-settings-daemon and libnotify are installed, and the daemon running. If running KDE, you would probably run Amarok instead (the latest SVN revisions are quite usable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pindakoe Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
