Posted: Mon Jun 24, 2002 6:08 pm Post subject: Rhythmbox |
|
|
Rhythm box is a Gnome2 app that i've been trying to get working but whenever i try i get this warning and this error message which seg faults the app.
Code: | warning: failed to load external entity "/home/float/.gnome2/rhythmbox/library.rhythmbox"
FAMOpen failed, FAMErrno=0
** ERROR **: file file-watcher.c: line 273 (add_uri): assertion failed: (handle != NULL)
|
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Is anyone else even using this program... I don't have an iPod but i want to use this to manage my mp3s. Has anyone else encountered this problem or know what i need to put into it's library file? Thanks. |

it sounds like you havent emerged/installed/started FAM (which is the File Alteration Monitor). i wasnt actually aware rythmbox depended on it, but this should help you.
Code: |
emerge fam-oss
/etc/init.d/fam start
rc-update add fam default
|
this will:
install fam
start it running now
and ensure its started on every bootup.
hope this helps, have a nice day.

Thanks for the help on that but it seems rhythmbox has been masked so I guess I'll just wait for it and see if it will be fixed in the next release of the ebuild. |

Rhythmbox was always masked, part of the Gnome2 big bloated mask.
its not an ebuild problem as such though, but a Warning. _________________ For immediate answers, @gentoo.org :

question: how strong a warning? will it just not work if I unmask it and emerge it.. or will it actually break other stuff if i do? |

I'm a really big rhythmbox head - am listening to music on it right now
To get 0.3.0 working
I did Code: | emerge /usr/portage/media-sound/rhythmbox/rhythmbox-0.3.0.ebuild |
which IMHO is masked for good reason because it didnt work for me - but trying and failing to emerge
it is the easiest way to install all the rb deps.
Then i just went to /var/tmp/portage/rh*/work/*/
and did Code: | ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
touch ../.compiled
ebuild /usr/portage/media-sound/rhythmbox/rhythmbox-0.3.0.ebuild merge |
Beyond 0.3.0
That should be enough to get you up and running - if you want to be on the cutting edge like
me and use cvs(it gets better every day - hell of a lot more stable then 0.3.0) then do
Code: |
CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
cvs -z3 co rhythmbox
cvs -z3 co monkey-sound
cvs -z3 co gnome-common
cd gnome-common
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make && make install
cd ..
cd monkey-sound
find . -iname makefile |while read MAKEFILE
do cp ${MAKEFILE} ${MAKEFILE}.old
sed -e "s:-I/usr/include : :g" ${MAKEFILE}.old > ${MAKEFILE}
done
./autogen.sh
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make && make install
cd ..
cd rhythmbox
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make && make install
cd ..

If you are not mad enought for all that - you may have to wait till january for the next major release _________________ Mark Finlay - Gnome Hacker of Sorts

I emerged 0.3.0 today and it installed fine.
However no music plays. it's very odd.
you can queue a song to play, but once you hit play no sound. Zinf works and gnome sounds work, but not rhythmbox. |

madplay works fine
looking through your guide now.
gst-launch-ext works fine too.
Running from the shell prompt:
Code: |
bash-2.05a$ rhythmbox
INFO (15992: 0) Initializing GStreamer Core Library version 0.4.0
INFO (15992: 0) CPU features: (0c040882) MMX SSE

(/home/eyevee99/.gstreamer/registry.xml)
registry: loaded global_registry in 0.151033 seconds
(/etc/gstreamer/registry.xml)
Opening alsa device "default" for playback...
error opening pcm device: No such file or directory
|
Any thoughts? |

Try running rhythmbox as root
Also check your monkeymedia settings in the gnome-cc - make sure the right audio output is selected _________________ Mark Finlay - Gnome Hacker of Sorts
