Thread: Amarok AMD64 always crashing on startup


being in possession of borked windows 7 installation, loaded amd 64 version of kubuntu oneiric on hp g42 laptop last night, , proper drivers (and cracks) installed, managed opengl working.

afternoon, decided amarok configured, involved getting music aging dell inspiron 530n onto decidely newer laptop.

getting music proved painless enough, , initial amarok scan took 45 minutes after assumed proceed ordinarily would.

wrong.

after scanned, attempted play collection, failed miserably , amarok crashed after few seconds. now, every time open amarok, crashes within few seconds. can't configure use phonon-backend-vlc.

thoughts how can amarok working again?

relevant specs follows:

intel core i3 processor, 2.26 ghz.
320 gib hdd
3 gib ram
intel i915 integrated graphics
