Will be included in 11.0?
Look at the beginning of the second sentence in the article: “This release will be found in openSUSE 11.0…”
Don’t worry, I had to look for it too. :p
Excerpt from the 5 Line Articel:
This release will be found in openSUSE 11.0
Sometimes it helps to read before asking
nice, but for now i can start it only as root, it gives me error as user. i don’t know if it is a bug of opensuse or banshee.
What’s the specific error? It might be you need to have membership in a certain user group in order to gain permission to either a device or library.
i don’t know if i can post my error here but anyway:

Thanks
I had that too. If you just delete all of the old banshee files it will work. Just do a find . -name “*banshee*” in your home directory and delete all of the results that should end up making it work.
too bad it still doesnt support replaygain… back to amarok.
banshee isnt the greatest player anyway. i use rhythmbox at the moment, because you have the places: artist, album and songs arranged like in itunes, and so i dont like apple, thats a very good design for an audio player.
amarok is a no go, i need endless time to find my songs in there.
15000+ songs and you will need rhythmbox…
i like most banshee, it supports replay again, and it minimizes to tray when closed (i think rhythmbox doesn’t). Haven’t try amarok, i like gnome apps.

Will be included in 11.0?”
Yes, sure!
Anyone know if DAAP is working properly in this release?
If you get those errors, just delete all of the config files in your home directory. Just use find . -name “*banshee*” to find them in your home directory and then delete the results. You shouldn’t get any errors after that. You will have to import your music again though.
Thank you, but i’ve already tried; i removed the root files of the old banshee. On my home directory, i don’t have a .banshee, but it would be somewhere, i tried even on shell. Do you remember where it was yours? Thanks
thanks it worked, they were under .gconf and .conf. i really like banshee.
I must be the only one encountering dependency problems when trying to upgrade from 0.13.2 on 10.3.
I had to uninstall Banshee 0.13.2 from opensuse first before installing v1 to get around the dependancy issues
Will this be included in 11.0 ?
