Description rh71 2010-05-19 20:21:08 UTC
Application: amarok (2.3.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2) (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.6.2
Operating System: Linux 2.6.32-22-generic i686
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

-- Information about the crash:
amarok , qt designer and knotifier (maybe more) dont work with my "old" account after upgrade to 10.04. 
If I login with guest account , the applications run. I already removed .kde/share/apps/amarok.
Error message on console:
 <unknown program name>(2574)/: Communication problem with  "amarok" , it probably crashed.
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown" : " "The name org.kde.amarok was not provided by any .service files" .

It looks for me that some old (hidden) configuration files disturbed the transfer from 9.10 to 10.04 on the qt level.
I should generate two bug reports or send the report as qt related, but I believe the symptoms are connected.

The strange thing is , that this seems related to my old user account.

dd~$ /usr/share/qt4/bin/designer

That crash is located in GStreamer. Install the appropriate debuginfo packages and report it with a useful backtrace there.
Comment 2 rh71 2010-05-23 09:55:56 UTC
Hello,
thanks for that hint, Sven!
I removed 
gstreamer0.10-gnonlin
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-dbg

from my system, now amarok and qt designer work. But how did you know that it is located in gstreamer? 
And still strange for me is that this crashing was depending on user level... Since I cannot reproduce any crash now I close this report. thanks again!dirk

Thread 1 is the one that crashes:

Thread 1 (Thread 0xb77a7720 (LWP 2575)):

The last calls are in libasound, which is Alsa (#6, 7). Alsa gets called by GStreamer (#8, 9). So it's very likely the problem is somewhere in the area Alsa/GStreamer.

That's how you read thos backtraces. :)
