Hm..  What version of amaroK are you using?  The version that came with 
Mandrake or the 1.2 beta

amaroK always firsts loads the void engine before it tries to load the real 
output engine to make sure something is loaded.  My first thought is that you 
uninstalled the libraries for the engine you were using, either libxine or 
libgstreamer.  Very possible if you were installing and uninstalling other 
audio apps.

I think you are right, I will have a go at installing those libraries.
Thanks for the help.
