it also happens with these two versions on Ubuntu Quantal (dist upgraded from Precise):
* 2.98-0.1~webupd8~quantal2 from ppa:webupd8team/rhythmbox * Precise's 2.96-0ubuntu4.1 installed manually (gotten these debs from packages.ubuntu.com: rhythmbox_2.96-0ubuntu4.1_amd64 librhythmbox-core5_2.96-0ubuntu4.1_amd64 rhythmbox-data_2.96-0ubuntu4.1_all gir1.2-rb-3.0_2.96-0ubuntu4.1_amd64) 2.96 worked wonderfully on Precise before upgrading... perhaps the XML got corrupted somehow during the upgrade? (though it doesn't look like it was modified) I've got a ~100gb collection. Also, if I start it with rhythmbox --rhythmdb-file=~/test.db it works, until it scanned enough of my ~/Music to start hanging again... My conclusion: * it's definitely related to having a large collection * it didn't happen on Precise * it happens on Quantal with Precise's Rhythmbox so I guess the problem lies in some other dependency (say, libxml or something)... any ideas? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010619 Title: [2.97-0ubuntu2] Rhythmbox freezes Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application: New Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello, With the latest version of RB 2.97-0ubuntu2, the interface freezes at launch. I didn't have this bug with the previous version 2.97-0ubuntu1 but it's a bit strange because it seems the change between the two versions only concerns 'audiocd' plugin (and I have this bug with or without this plugin) If I launch it with this command, I don't have any problem: $ rhythmbox --rhythmdb-file=test.db Maybe my (huge) database is corrupted but if I launch RB with the debug mode (-d), I don't have this bug (but it takes a few time before being ready to use).
