On the other hand, from time to time I have show-stoppers, and then I

unstable, and taking 5 minutes to start. What the heck is it doing in this
time?
Fuck knows what amarok-2x does for the first 5 minutes. I *think* On my system
it scans the music directory, presumably to find updates that happened when
amarok was not running. Fair enough, can't argue that, but why is it so
*slow*???
Fuck also knows what the amarok devs are doing in general. I still can't find
a way to move stuff to an mp3 player like the old 1.4 version did. And the
library thingamagij still doesn't always update tags, or put tag changes that
it itself did into it's own database. It gladly accepts any changes you make
in the Edit Tags dialog, and tries to write them, even if it knows it cannot
do it (no support for that format, permissions, etc). Then, no warning or
message about this. Depending on which bleeding edge latest-svn commit build
you happen to get on any given day, this last might or might not tell you
something in the status bar.
For all the above reasons, and more, I have switched to clementine (it's in
portage). It's a Qt port of amarok-1.4 and has equivalents of all the music-
playing goodness that amarok used to have. It doesn't do tags, external
players, wikipedia etc etc, it just plays music. And you have to tag your
music by other means with eg kid3. I can live with that. At least it starts
and stays up.
And to think I have been in KDE 4 for almost a week now. Maybe this is
to soon to remove KDE 3?
My pet peeve so far is the background slide show. Every time I log in,
try to change a setting for the background, or sneeze the wrong way, it
starts looking for the new images, even tho there may not be any. I
have a huge amount of them and it takes almost 2 minutes to "rebuild"
whatever it is building. While it is doing that, it won't do anything
else.
I'm hoping this will change sometime soon. Oh, I also don't like that
the images are random. Most of my images are done as a slide show.
Having them in random order sort of defeats the point.
