All,

My openSUSE 12.1 Linux server contains the home dirs of users (/home), the mp3 collection (/mp3) and also holds mysql.
The home directories are automounted on the clients which gives the user the same computer experience independent of the PC/client.
Next to this /mp3 is also mounted (as /mp3) on the client.

On PC1 (openSUSE 12.1 64bit) I have setup Amarok (http://www.famtenhoopen.nl/wall/pc1-amarok.png) using mysql as db and added all mp3-s under /mp3 (http://www.famtenhoopen.nl/wall/pc1-setup.png, http://www.famtenhoopen.nl/wall/pc1-setup2.png) resulting in a collection (http://www.famtenhoopen.nl/wall/pc1-amarokscreen.png)

I now logoff from PC1 and logon to PC2 (openSUSE 12.1 64bit). I will get there the same /home, /mp3 and connection to the db but amarok (http://www.famtenhoopen.nl/wall/pc2-amarok.png) shows me 0 tracks, the number of albums is one less but the number of artists is correct (http://www.famtenhoopen.nl/wall/pc2-amarokscreen.jpg)

Anybody any idea what's going on .... any tips or trics..... or is it a bug/feature???

I assume that both PCs use the same versions of KDE and Amarok and all the rest?

Yes save versions, see screenshots

Do you use the internal database only? Then of course you will not see the stats as those are in the user specific folders: $HOME/.kde4/share/apps/amarok/..

I'm using a mysql db on the server. See also the screenshots of the configuration.
