A quick solution to remove it follows: press alt-f2 and type: gnome-terminal Type these:
sudo apt-get remove --purge music-applet killall gnome-panel It will ask you to delete the music-applet (it asked me 3 consecutive times), click the "Delete" button, then: sudo apt-get install --reinstall rhythmbox sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart Because my system > quit wouldn't work, restart your computer using: sudo shutdown -r now When it restarts, install music-applet again: sudo apt-get install music-applet Add it in your gnome-panel by right click on the panel > add to panel... > Music applet and click "Add", wait for a bit and "Close". You should have a "music note" icon. Right-click on the icon Preferences, check to show time, controls, and the notification (this will reset the conf file I think), and *AFTER THIS* uncheck the "show rating". Finally check/uncheck the stuff you want. Click "Close". Then right click again > plugins. Select the plugins to load (Rhythmbox for me) and choose your preferred plugin (Rhythmbox again). P.S. Although it doesn't have anything to do with this bug report, I have to mention that this fixed music-applet's xmms and xmms2 modules (doesn't show the "stop" sign next to those plugins anymore). -- music-applet crashed with DBusException in __new__() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139447 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
