Hi!
I don't know if my problems are the same as the original reporter but
banshee is totally unusable for me too.
I can start banshee but as soon as I try to play a song banshee dies.
I ran gdb as suggested previously in this bugreport, and noticed that
there was actually several segfaults during startup which banshee
mysteriously seems to survive before the final deadly segfault when
trying to play a song.
I'll attach the info from my gdb runs to this mail in hope that you can
solve these problems...
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
