Gentoo released a new KDE version, so I updated from KDE 4.6.5 to KDE 4.7.3 today. Just to be sure I also recompiled Amarok. Everything looked ok when I started Amarok. Until I realized that all my lyrics have disappeared ! Help! I have more than 13,000 tracks and most of them had lyrics. How can I get them back? Oliver

The database is in ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/amarok and I still have "some" lyrics: Code: Select all `-rw-rw---- 1 oliver users 8618 22. Nov 2010 .kde/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/amarok/lyrics.frm -rw-rw---- 1 oliver users 14641544 10. Dez 18:27 .kde/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/amarok/lyrics.MYD -rw-rw---- 1 oliver users 2050048 10. Dez 18:27 .kde/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/amarok/lyrics.MYI` 14 MB of lyrics. How can I tell Amarok to see them again? It also seems as if new lyrics are added to the database as I'm playing some old tracks. Oliver
