That crash happens in ALSA/GStreamer. Please install the appropriate -debuginfo packages and report it with a fresh backtrace there. (In reply to comment #1) > That crash happens in ALSA/GStreamer.

I'm going to keep reporting this bug until I get an acceptable answer. This is the only KDE program I have under Gnome on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and it's only Amarok that crashes on my system so I fail to see how this has anything to do with ALSA/GStreamer as claimed. If it is then how do I report this bug to the ALSA/GStreamer developers when this bug reporting tool directs me to the Amarok developers?

So you 1.) don't have a few hours of patience and 2.) announce you will misuse our development tools? Usually this would be a case for the admins of bko....
As i'm in a good mood I won't report this but tell you three things:
1. the backtrace clearly shows a crash in Alsa, as I said before. the function calls before are from GStreamer, so the problem might be caused there.
2. this is not a support forum, if you don't know what packages to install ask whatever support mechanism your distribution provides. this is a development tool.
3. have a nice day and come back once you learned not to threaten people that do work IN THEIR FREE TIME FOR YOU. to clearify: if i was not in such a good mood this would read as "stfu".
(In reply to comment #4) Sven, I apologize if my frustration with Amarok comes across as threatening or abusive. My persistence should not be mistaken as abuse. Signing up to report this bug and waiting for a positive reply shows that I have more then just a few hours of patience. I wasn't intending on misusing your development tools, I only wanted to get a satisfactory answer to this bug with instructions on how to go about resolving the problem I'm having with Amarok. Telling me that it's some other programs fault without giving me info on who/where to get help isn't going to resolve this bug with Amarok. Trust me, had the bug report tool pointed me in any other direction other then here, I would never have bothered you. I'm just a user, not a programmer so how am I supposed to know that it's GStreamer causing Amarok to crash? |
