Hi
I have an issue which seems to be in other forums but I don't really see an answer that works for me.
Using XFCE in Mageia 4 64 bit version. I have plenty of ram and cpu 8gb ddr2 and 2.66 Pentium Core 2 Duo. So I know running out of memory or slow cpu is not the issue.
Banshee will open up the window,show the list then abruptly shuts down.
I tried starting in terminal and got this result
[chris@localhost ~]$ banshee --debug

Got a SIGABRT while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries
used by your application.

There is a ton more code but this post only allows 30000 characters

I tried installing mono-dev as it seemed to be only lib not installed that I thought might have an impact. Same result.

I saw this in the code

warning: File "/usr/bin/mono-sgen-gdb.py" auto-loading has been declined by your `auto-load safe-path' set to "$debugdir:$datadir/auto-load".
To enable execution of this file add
add-auto-load-safe-path /usr/bin/mono-sgen-gdb.py
line to your configuration file "/home/chris/.gdbinit".
To completely disable this security protection add
set auto-load safe-path /
line to your configuration file "/home/chris/.gdbinit".

but I can't find that particular script in my /chris dir

Anyone had this and found a workaround or a solution? I would like to use the program.

Thanks for the help
Chris

I tried this too.. without any different results
mv ~/.config/banshee-1 ~/.config/banshee-1.bak
rm -rf ~/.cache/.banshee-1
IT cleared all the playlists and data stuff but after reloading playlist it died again on startup.
