I just installed amarok on an AMD-64 box.

I have KDe running, I have amarok running, I have k3b running.  I can play my music with amarok. I can burn CDs with k3b.

But I can't burn a playlist to a CD from amarok; it just gives me the very terse

"Can't start k3b" error mesage in a popup window.

I can't find any debugging logs or any errors anywhere.

Any suggestions on this?

Debian Etch
KDE 3.5.5
Amarok 1.4.4

I did some basic checking - replaced /usr/bin/k3b with a simple bash capture script.  It's never being called.

OK, I started amarokapp

yan@dionysus:~$ amarokapp
