Ok, I have done some more analysis with tshark. When mpdscribble starts it makes a DNS query for post.audioscrobbler.com and then seems to cache that result for the rest of the time it runs. When mpdscribble is not working, it doesn't even attempt to make a TCP/HTTP connection the scrobble servers.
Sometimes it does work when it starts at boot, sometimes it doesn't, I haven't found a pattern for it, though. -- mpdscribble does not launch at boot time in edgy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
