Ok, but without a backtrace there's nothing we can do about it, we can just gess what's happening, sorry. Please consider reading http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ#How_can_I_obtain_a_decent_backtrace.3F and getting us a backtrace if possible. Just happened to me today. Amarok was playing. I restarted KDE and now amarok crashes at startup with *exactly* the same effects as described. I get the same output when launching from konsole. As for the backtrace, my version of amarok is from a debian unstable package, so I guess the backtrace can't be used. Problem fixed by removing ~/.kde/share/config/amarokrc if that might help. Renaming ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/ didn't help, so it might be a pb with amarokrc itself I guess. I have also encountered this problem with the debian/unstable package, with a minor difference in the output ('cannot paint null pixmap'):
amaroK: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
amaroK: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp.
QObject::connect: Cannot connect Engine::Base::statusText( const QString& ) to (null)::shortMessage( const QString& )
QObject::connect: Cannot connect Engine::Base::infoMessage( const QString& ) to (null)::longMessage( const QString& )
QLayout: Adding KToolBar/mainToolBar (child of QVBox/unnamed) to layout for PlaylistWindow/PlaylistWindow
QPainter::begin: Cannot paint null pixmap
KCrash: Application 'amarok' crashing...
If I rename amarokrc, the splash screen pops up, then the application crashes as in the original bug report (no null pixmap error).
I've attempted to rebuild with full-debug enabled in the debian source package, but am encoutering build errors and cannot yet obtain a backtrace. -Mike
Well I have temporarily got rid of the bug by removing amarokrc, but accidentally I didn't keep the original amarokrc. I will try to reproduce the bug but I doubt I will succeed. Also I have the same problem with Juk(crashes on startup). I am actually using SuSE Linux, so I don't know if I need to start a new thread or what, but I have the same problem. I tried deleting the amarokrc file and it still crashed. I'm new to Linux and I don't even know how to compile anything with debug symbols, so for what it's worth I'm giving the backtrace.

() One of the incompatible amarok plugins might cause the crash. Try removing the amarok-plugin rpms by YaST and install them again, but one by one and after each plugin installation try starting amarok...You may find it out... Good Luck... Removing the amarok-plugins did not solve the problem. Deleting the amarokrc made it only worse. My way was a bit longer (more than 3 days to be exactly): I removed amarok and all plugins. Additionally I removed libvisual (probably not necessary). Then I searched for all amarok files rested in the filesystem. I removed all scripts, all setting files, all database files. What I left on my drive were the album covers. After reinstallation amarok did not crash anymore. BTW: My backtrace looked like the one in comment #7. Ok, thanks for testing. Closing.
