I'm seeing the same thing after an upgrade from Breezy to Dapper. >From the console if I start amarok I get:
amaroK: [Loader] Starting amarokapp.. amaroK: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp. kbuildsycoca running... QLayout: Adding KToolBar/mainToolBar (child of QVBox/unnamed) to layout for PlaylistWindow/PlaylistWindow QPainter::begin: Cannot paint null pixmap And then with ps -ef | grep amarok I get: mthaddon 16626 1 13 14:47 pts/0 00:00:10 /usr/lib/amarok/amarokapp mthaddon 16671 16631 0 14:48 ? 00:00:00 kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/klaunchergiXTgb.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/amarokgSq1wa.slave-socket mthaddon 16672 16631 0 14:48 ? 00:00:00 kio_http [kdeinit] http /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/klaunchergiXTgb.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/amarokVKkI2b.slave-socket mthaddon 16673 16631 0 14:48 ? 00:00:00 kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/klaunchergiXTgb.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/amarok1jrO6a.slave-socket mthaddon 16674 16631 0 14:48 ? 00:00:00 kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/klaunchergiXTgb.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/amaroklpwYka.slave-socket mthaddon 16675 16631 0 14:48 ? 00:00:00 kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/klaunchergiXTgb.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/amarokj665Ta.slave-socket mthaddon 16676 16631 0 14:48 ? 00:00:00 kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/klaunchergiXTgb.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-mthaddon/amaroka7Nkta.slave-socket mthaddon 16726 16571 0 14:48 pts/0 00:00:00 grep amarok But no main window and no icon in the notification area, so I can't play it or anything.
