Re: [SOLVED] QuodLibet Errors Doesn't Open

you seem to be missing a 'filesystem' definition in the 'browsers' section of your config file.

it's all right there in the last line of the traceback.

btw, bumping a thread is bad form.  bumping it just two hours after you posted it is very bad form indeed.

Re: [SOLVED] QuodLibet Errors Doesn't Open

If I run as root it comes up looking very 'old fashioned-gnome like' and I get this error message(s):

Re: [SOLVED] QuodLibet Errors Doesn't Open

funki,

that error message contains something like six different suggestions to fix the error.  have you tried any of them?  you don't give any indication in yr posts that yr actually trying to fix anything on your own.  if you are, i apologize for presuming.  if you aren't, i'd say you should exhaust all your other options (wiki, google, upstream forums, wiki, etc.) before posting any more error logs.

good luck!

Re: [SOLVED] QuodLibet Errors Doesn't Open

have you tried to follow up on any of the suggestions explicitly made in the error messages?  *what* have you tried and *how* did it fail?

there's an error about gconf... is gconf installed?  is it working correctly?

you get different errors as a normal user and root.  that suggests there are permissions or policies errors.

this sound more like a bug or a problem with the application.  have you tried to contact the quod libet community for help?  i bet they know more than the general arch pool.

Re: [SOLVED] QuodLibet Errors Doesn't Open

it's very strange because it worked right after i installed, and that was it. gconf sure is installed. i'm not new to gnome, just i consider myself new to arch as I've only used it for 5 months. when researching some of the issues i get quodlibet bug reports so i guess i'll ask around those forums. thanks.
