Songbird doesn't launch

Hi, my songbird installation refuses to start:

/opt/Songbird/songbird: line 169: /opt/Songbird/./songbird-bin: No such file or directory

That is really strange, because ls -l shows me:

[sebastian@SL500 Songbird]$ ls -l /opt/Songbird/songbird-bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 36888 Jan  6 01:29 /opt/Songbird/songbird-bin

but executing ./songbird-bin in /opt/Songbird results in

bash: ./songbird-bin: No such file or directory

How can a File be inexistant if ls shows it?

Re: Songbird doesn't launch

try, only songbird-bin, if you are in the same directory, or /opt/Songbird/songbird-bin

That's what I did, bash says that this file doesn't exist when I try to execute it. But ls shows it as executable for everyone.

Re: Songbird doesn't launch

use "file /opt/Songbird/songbird-bin " and note that it is probably 64 bit while you are using 32 or vice versa...

Re: Songbird doesn't launch

Which songbird package are you using? Mine?

/usr/bin/songbird

Yes, I'm using this package. But this seems to be some more serious, other error. The same thing occured with nvidia-settings now.

Re: Songbird doesn't launch

This seems again to be problems with libvisual

Re: Songbird doesn't launch

Oh, and a lot more Errors ... :]

songbird-bin:2105): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin '/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstlibvisual.so': /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstlibvisual.so: undefined symbol: gst_adapter_prev_timestamp

e.g.

P.S.: It's a Problem with Songbird using other than Arch's gst-libs.
Workaround: edit the startingfile "Songbird" add

export LD_BIND_NOW=1
songbird

as the first lines, and everybody is happy :]
