Every time I open Amarok, it tells me "The embedded database was not found...". I disabled "External MySQL database" in settings, as well as changed some other settings. MOST settings saved, but what hasn't saved is my unchecking of the SQL database box (it keeps reselecting itself when I reopen Amarok), and my collection settings, which keep getting cleared whenever I reopen Amarok. My USE flags are: ipod, opengl, player.

Any ideas?

Check for a "mysqle" USE flag, and enable it.

Actually it's the "embedded" flag (no mysqle flag). I remember disabling it because it was giving me issues - turned out I just needed to enable embedded for mysql too.

Amarok now works! Thanks
