Nigel,

Thanks for your reply. It is a little more complicated than that. Rhythmbox
crashes after changing a radio-stream. Not always after the first change,
but usually within a change or two..It gives than two dialog boxes on top of
each other. One tells me It cannot START the music pipeline and on top of
that a dialog-box (or the other way around,I don't remember) that it cannot
STOP the music pipeline. After that nothing works. It won't play any music.
No flac-files or MP3-files on the harddisk, no podcasts that are already
downloaded and no musicstream or radio as mentioned. The only way to make it
running again is to completely close down the application (not neccesary to
close down the laptop). With the closing of Rhythmbox an empty dialogbox
appears. After closing that and starting Rhythmbox again, it will run fine
.....till I try to change a radio-station.........

I now am really considering to run an older distro from Ubuntu (not 9.01,
but the previous one). Just to make things running again.

Regards,
Peter van der Maas
