Ipod Nano crashes Amarok


Posts: 11

Amarok crashes in Simplymepis64 6.5 every time I attempt to connect my 8GB Ipod Nano. I tried GTKPod, and it too crashes whenever I try to connect the nano to it. I solved the gtkpod problem by downgrading to version 0.88 of gtkpod. However, I don't know what to do with Amarok yet.

Tried it on Kubuntu

I tried the iPod nano on Kubuntu 7.04 and the problem with crashing amarok and ipod nano doesn't exist there. Amarok on kubuntu connects to the ipod nano perfectly with no problem.

Could it be because kubuntu uses amarok 1.4.5 as opposed to the 1.4.4 in mepis?

Possibly. Try starting

Possibly.

Try starting Amarok in a console and watch the output when it crashes. Maybe that can help to solve the issue

Newbie or not Newbie, there's always a question

Update

I removed mepis amarok packages then compiled and installed amarok 1.4.5 from source on mepis 6.5. Amarok 1.4.5 connected with the ipod nano with no problem at all.
