Is this other partition an NTFS partition because NTFS partitions do not automatically mount on startup of an Ubuntu 8.04 machine and hence your library will be essentially disconnected at every startup. If this is the case what you have to do is click on the "Places" menu on the desktop top bar and select in that list the partition you want mounted. Then open rhythmbox and it wont destroy your library.
In previous Ubuntu versions (7.10 Gutsy and previous) all partitions would automatically be mounted and the problem would not have appeared, 8.04 changed in this regard (not sure why exactly) and you have to (somewhat) manually mount NTFS volumes through the "Places" menu before you can us them. -- rhythymbox gets rid of my library every time i open it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/230111 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
