I compiled everything with the emerge tool, but when it comes to run Amarok I can see its splash, and for some seconds also its main window, then it closes (only the tray icon stays, but  when I pass over it disappears). Suggestions? It's a OS related problem? I tried to downgrade to 20071206 version when it was announced that is played music but it's the same.

This is what I've found with gdb:


warning: Debug:amarok(3320)/kdecore (KLibLoader) findLibraryInternal: plugins sh

warning: Fatal:ASSERT failure in Phonon::PlatformPlugin* Phonon::FactoryPrivate:

Program exited with code 01.




I'll try recompiling phonon. Thanks for any advice cause I'm new to windows stuff

Just from reading your debug output: It says that the qtlib is not compatible with the KDE stuff you are running. Do you have the qtlib version installed KDE was built with?

Yes I do. I'm trying to emerge kdelibs once again, if I'll fail I'll try recompiling qt too

P.S. This time I set the type of build to debug instead than releasefwithsomedebug (or so far), hoping this will help. I think I might need to recompile amarok this way

Solved recompiled qt and kdelibs with debug. Now there's another little bug... when I close the windows, it tells me it will stay in tray, but it's not true, cause it exits cleanly. But that's another story.

THANKS FOR THE GREAT WORK!
Even If I dind't try if it works at media player on windows yet
