I eventually followed the workaround in 531340 and reinstalled the kaa packages, and indeed now freevo takes off like a champ. Go figure.

It's getting late over here, but I'll check the debian bug tracking system tomorrow and if I can't find anything, I guess I'll have to send in a bug report. Unless you'd rather do that yourself, since you probably know a lot more about kaa than I do.. Might make it sound more convincing :-) Just goes to show that it's probably a good idea to simulate an upgrade six months into the life of the current stable release and report bugs when the maintainers still have the time to fix them.

Saw that thread. That's what I meant by inconclusive. ;-) But this is debian, and I'm not sure I want to do anything that would break apt. I'm really only using this debian system for evaluation purposes and to report bugs while there's time to fix them rather than have them hit me when squeeze goes stable.

But it looks like this might just be the result of having old kaa modules around. I've just had a look back through my imap archive and someone posted the same error as you. rm -r /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa* then reinstalling kaa fixed it up for them.

Sounds like a plan. Please let me know where I can check on open Freevo 1.9 bugs so I can report this to the debian maintainer before squeeze goes stable.

The maintainer of the 1.x branch has been pretty busy with other stuff for the last while so there's no release scheduled at the moment but you might want to check out an svn copy of the 1.9 code and see if that fixes it.

[Freevo-users] Debian Squeeze - Freevo 1.9 starts and shuts down immediately
I'm setting up debian Squeeze on a separate partition and the version of Freevo is 1.9.0. Freevo starts on vt9 at boot time, I see the screen with the progress bar but before I get to the main menu, there is a message informing me that freevo is shutting down and I'm bounced back to a linux console. This is what I see at the end of the freevo log: [..] Freevo 1.9.0 ready 2009-11-07 20:26:23,400 ERRORUnhandled InProgress exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/thread.py", line 355, in __call__ result = super(MainThreadCallback, self).__call__(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/callback.py", line 212, in __call__ result = cb(*cb_args, **cb_kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/timer.py", line 145, in start self._id = notifier.timer_add(int(interval * 1000), self) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/nf_wrapper.py", line 124, in __call__ init() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/nf_wrapper.py", line 175, in init if notifier.loop: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'loop' 2009-11-07 20:26:23,401 INFO Create-stack for InProgress from preceding exception: File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/main.py", line 559, in rc.post_event(FREEVO_READY) File "/usr/share/pyshared/freevo/rc.py", line 73, in post_event return get_singleton().post_event(event) File "/usr/share/pyshared/freevo/rc.py", line 598, in post_event event.post() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/event.py", line 88, in post return manager.post(event) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/event.py", line 172, in post self.timer.start(0) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa/thread.py", line 123, in newfunc in_progress = callback(*args, **kwargs) 2009-11-07 20:26:23,403 INFO create thread notifier pipe Freevo 1.9.0 r11576 finished at Sat Nov 7 20:26:08 2009 A "Freevo ready" message, a couple of python back traces and immediately afterwards the "Freevo finished" message. So it looks like the problem is with one of the kaa packages, I have googled a bit to try and learn more about this, but I haven't seen anything conclusive, only hints that other users have run into a similar problem. I had a feeling this might be caused by a plugin or other and I removed them one at a time but trimming down to a barebones configuration hasn't made any difference. The only other issue I'm having with debian testing on the laptop is that certain keys are mapped to the wrong keycodes. I don't see this having any bearing on this issue, but I thought I'd mention it. Thanks, CJ -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
