Description langstr 2010-04-14 15:11:21 UTC

Version:           git-current (using KDE 4.3.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

After I remove my .kde/share/config/amarokrc and .kde/share/apps/amarok, Amarok (git-current) has "Show Splashscreen" = false.

That's odd, because it seems to be a feature that you'd set to "true" in the default config. And indeed: amarokconfig.kcfg has "Show Splashscreen" as <default>true</default>.

When I create a new user on my Kubuntu 9.10 host, and let him run the old v2.2.0 Amarok, the same thing happens: splash screen disabled.

It seems the splash screen is disabled for all new Amarok users, but I think that's not intentional?

It turns out that this is a decision of Kubuntu.

It is controlled by this file:
   /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde4-profile/default/share/config/amarokrc

in Kubuntu package 'kubuntu-default-settings'.
