Are you doing this as part of some MythTV setup? It seems like DCOP was trying to broadcast out to Amarok, but didn't have the proper permissions to actually do so across X sessions.

[Bug 89711] Re: amarok hangs on start
In the process of building an automated backend to run under Xvfb, I ran
into this issue, or at least I think it was, I could not see the GUI;-)
Anyhow, I tried removing all of the following:
rm -rf /tmp/ksocket*
rm -rf /tmp/kde-paul
rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix/[d0-9].*
rm -rf /tmp/orbit-paul
rm -rf ~/.DCOP*
rm -rf /var/tmp/kdecache-paul
and nothing worked, I poured through lsof, netstat, and everything else looking
for something I was missing. Here is where the strace hung:
(strace dcop --all-sessions --user paul amarok player isPlaying)
read(5, 0x7ac82560, 32) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1
read(5, "\34\270\t\0\1\0\240\3\4\0\0\0\3168\232\26\0008\232\26\210"..., 32) = 32
write(4, "\1\2\1\0h\0\0\0004\0\0\0", 12) = 12
write(4, "\0\0\0\20anonymous-11008\0\0\0\0\7amarok\0\0"..., 96) = 96
write(4, "\0\0\0\0\26\2328\316", 8) = 8
read(4,
I noticed this was while reading:
access("/home/paul/.Xauthority", R_OK) = 0
open("/home/paul/.Xauthority", O_RDONLY) = 6
fstat(6, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=208, ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0x2b4eafe47000
read(6, "\1\0\0\6mythtv\0\00212\0\22MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE"..., 4096) = 208
Once I removed my .Xauthority file, everything was find. Dont know if
this helps anyone else, but I figured it was worth a try...

@Jeff: Yeah, the find pattern matches anything with amarok in it. Heck, I didn't even have a collection loaded, I was just using Amarok to play a stream. I have rebooted since my last update, and Amarok 1.4.5 is happy again. I did see a reference in strace to a shared memory operation getting denied, and that's where the strace stopped. Of course, it's working now, so I can't reproduce it.

[Bug 89711] Re: amarok hangs on start
In fact, after some Googling I can pretty much guarantee that Corey at least is running into a problem that is not inherent to Amarok. Those TREE and MERGE-SOURCE labels are put in by Bazaar, the Canonical SCM system: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/36399 So I don't know what file QSettings is complaining about (you may want to do a 'find | xargs grep TREE' in ~/.kde but this problem may be even deeper, down to packages built with badly merged files. Since it seems to be affecting people now running at least three different versions of Amarok, I'm guessing it's a KDE or Qt package. I'm leaving this in Ubuntu hands. I'll keep watching the thread, but there's nothing I can do about this. -- amarok hangs on start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89711 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for amarok in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Andrew: QSettings: malformed line '<<< TREE' in group 'Settings' QSettings: malformed line '>>> MERGE-SOURCE' in group 'Settings' Never seen this before, and if downgrading Amarok isn't helping (Duncan) I'm wondering if there's another package everyone upgraded to that's causing the problem. That looks suspiciously like a cruft from a conflict when doing some sort of a source code update on either qt or Amarok.

Having now downgraded back to 1.4.5, the problem still exists. The downgrade process was as follows: Remove fiesty backports from sources.list Remove amarok, amarok-xine Update the apt database Install amarok, amarok-xine Nuke all amarok data in .kde/ Restart X Amarok 1.4.5 now exhibits the same hanging behaviour. It's loaded the blue panel to the left saying 'Hello' and offering to build a collection, but I can't actually click in the interface.

[Bug 89711] Re: amarok hangs on start
I've just encountered this on Kubuntu 7.04, with the addition of the Feisty backports version of Amarok (1.4.7). 1.4.5 was working just fine, closed it out, upgraded, and when it starts up now, it just shows the spinning icon to say 'wait'. Waited 5 minutes, no change. Attempting to close Amarok resulted in a terminate dialog. Whacked anything mentioning amarok in .kde/, tried again.

Re: Alchera: You may also want to try using MySQL instead of the built-in Sqlite. Sqlite is pretty good and has gotten better but if the issue is solved by removing the old database file, it may be an issue with a corrupted database (which may not have been caused by Amarok). Re: Michael Ambrus: Do you have an ultra-large playlist? The playlist management code wasn't optimized for large (i.e. maybe larger than a few thousand tracks) playlists which meant that you could see exponential time increases. There were a few patches to minimize this. Try upgrading to 1.4.6 (or, soon, 1.4.7) and see if the behavior is different. Also, it's not AmaroK. It's Amarok. :-) -- amarok hangs on start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89711 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for amarok in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

[Bug 89711] Re: amarok hangs on start
I'm having the same problem (AmaroK 1.4.3). Removing all AmaroK files
from $HOME directory will help (but will also require re-doing the
personalised setup). I did the following (killed all running KDE apps
first just in case):
killall amarokapp
killall dcopserver
cd .kde/
find . -iname "*amarok*" -exec rm -rf '{}' ';'
After that AmaroK should start up with the start-up wizard.
Hint:
This maybe somehow related to the play-list management since I've also noticed
that AmaroK sometimes looses the setting of the "collection folders". Until
this hang bug happened it was harmless and all I had to do was re-entering that
setting.

[Bug 89711] Re: amarok hangs on start
Amarok, when started, just look at the output of dcop, to see if amarokapp is already there. Often, there is one but that is not responsive (dcop amarokapp) hangs. So, doing: killall amarok killall amarokapp waiting 60 seconds without having sound in KDE to let artsd disable making sure kaffeine is not working then launching amarok open it in the 'program tray' at the right normally works well for me for making amarok live again. -- amarok hangs on start https://launchpad.net/bugs/89711 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
