Hi there,

Can someone please tell me how I can get a Wikipedia Plasmoid for Amarok2?  I have just switched to Mandriva One 2009 (KDE), which comes with Amarok 2 installed and since Amarok has been my favourite music player in Ubuntu before, I thought let's give version 2 a try.  BUT I miss the Wikipedia tab in this version.  As I understand, the Wiki lookup now uses the plasmoid framework.
I first looked at the Amarok script manager to get the Wiki lookup back, but there is no such script! I then tried the software manager, but  there seems to be nothing in the Mandriva repos that looks like a Wikipedia Plasmoid, or an Amarok2 extension.
Finally I seached  http://www.kde-apps.org/, but could not find any Wiki for Amarok.

Can someone please help me with that, I really liked the Wiki Tab in Version 1.4?

Look at the Context View (the middle part). At the bottom you can see a green plus sign. Click that and look for the wikipedia applet. Add it and be happy ;-)

Trying to add it with the plus button in the context panel is  what I tried first - BUT ther is no Wikipedia applet on the list.
  What I can choose from is:
Albums, Current track info, Lyrics applet, Media devices
Any ideas how to get the Wiki to show up in that list?

Then something is wrong with your install. Please ask your distribution. It should be there by default.

Oh and you did see that you can scroll in that list right? Sorry if that sounds dumb but just making sure you don't overlook anything.

Oops, I didn't see that you could scroll - Thank you that solved the problem.
