hi i am running kbuntu breezy 5.10

sound on my system works perfect on kaffeine using gstreamer engine whereas lately amarok has started acting funny
when i start amarok the spalsh screen comes up and disappers (fails to start-no system tray icon either)
so i tried running from shell and this is msg i received
i ran amarok -wizard
the wizard came up i made my setting but again it failed to start after showing the splash screen
============================================

I have also tried reinstalling amarok and gstreamer engine

thank you

i uninstalled the amarok-gstreamer engine and installed the amarok-xine-engine. works like a charm now. back to my music!

using yum, I did
"yum -y install xine xine-libs xine-skins"

going to test it as soon as it is done,and I will report back the results.
