EDIT: ive just figured it out AMAROK DOESNT USE INTERNET CONNECTION
so i have little problem here..
details:
distro: slackware 13
kernel: 2.6.29.6-smp
kde: 4.3.4
qt: 4.5.2

i can add a fact that global shortcuts (such as ctrl+tab, alt+tab) stopped working

what the hell is there?
shall i re-make whole program with some extra options?


----begin OLD part of post---------
I've met with a brand new bug in the last release
when i try to test logging in the options of last.fm plugin i push the test button

Code: Select all

[code]amarok: BEGIN: void LastFmServiceSettings::testLogin()
amarok:   [lastfm] username: "anath0r"
amarok: END__: void LastFmServiceSettings::testLogin() - Took 0.0012s
amarok: BEGIN: void LastFmServiceSettings::onAuthenticated()
amarok:   [lastfm] Unhandled QNetworkReply state, probably not important
amarok: END__: void LastFmServiceSettings::onAuthenticated() - Took 0.00038s
[/code]
and nothing happends, button is still grey... i cant wait for hours so i click OK in window and get
[code]amarok: BEGIN: void ScanManager::startIncrementalScan()
****i have bugged mysql so it puts an error here******
amarok: END__: void ScanManager::startIncrementalScan() - Took 0.0019s
amarok: BEGIN: void ServiceConfig::slotConfigComitted(const QByteArray&)
amarok:    config comitted for:  "amarok_service_lastfm"
amarok: END__: void ServiceConfig::slotConfigComitted(const QByteArray&) - Took 0.00025s
[/code]
and when i get to main window:

i have just upgraded it from 2.2.1 and scrobbling doesn't work

As suggested in the last paragraph: did you try again later?

i think amarok is NOT using the internet- wikipedia and lyrics doesnt work
so i should have given topic another, appropriate name...

Well, it works fine here, I very much doubt this is an Amarok related problem. Check your Internet connection and eventual proxy and/or firewall settings.

thats an evasive answer!
i find out many 'miracle bugs' in every version of amarok, i always build it on my own
since 2.0 version there are many complications with this soft, 1.x was always clear and fast, mostly...

i think its a problem with some library but i cant recognize which one. there are always problems with .so files on slackware
thus, it would be great if there was a package for slack

Well, it works fine here in both 2.2.2 and 2.2-git on Kubuntu 9.10, uisng KDE SC 4.4 RC 1, so this is for sure not an Amarok problem.

How about talking to the Slackware people to provide a recent package?

ok ill downgrade to 2.1
EOT

edit:
damn, 2.2.1 says there is no .so file, 2.2.2 builds but there aint no plugins at all! thats all about amarok on slackware...

What is the output of "solid-network query status"?

Look for a line like: "networking: is enabled"

If it says disabled and you have an internet connection, you are experiencing a Solid bug that occurs whenever a backend is unavailable ( currently only Wicd and Network Manager backends exist )
