this won't help, because it isn't "running and then hangs up", it's "not running, and won't start"... i click the icon, or type "amarok" and hit enter, it looks like it's going to start, and then it doesn't... only now it does, which is, ultimately, the goal, but doesn't help me figure out what has gone wrong. 8/ -- namaste salamandir salaman...@hybridelephant.com A: Because it breaks the logical sequence of discussion Q: Why is top posting bad?
