[Bug 186384] Re: Amarok does not autodetect devices in Hardy and Gutsy with KDE3.5.9 and KDE4 ppa repository

[davebv]

** Summary changed:

- Amarok does not autodetect devices when upgraded to KDE4 or KDE3.5.9 ppa repository
+ Amarok does not autodetect devices in Hardy and Gutsy with KDE3.5.9 and KDE4 ppa repository

** Description changed:

+ In hardy does not work at all, with the official packages in the
+ official repository.
+ 
+ In gutsy, I did the following:
+ 
  I followed the instructions in 
  http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.php
  and added the ppa repository: "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu gutsy main"
  
  I did actually apt-get update and dist-upgrade before installing
  kde4-core package. And after that, some kde3 packages were upgraded. So
  far so good, but thet I tried to use amarok with my ipod and the
  following message popped up:
  
  "No new media devices were found. If you feel this is an error, ensure
  that the DBUS and HAL daemons are running and KDE was built with support
  for them. You can test this by running "dcop kded mediamanager fullList"
  in a Konsole window"
  
  And then, when I try to disconnect the ipod within amarok, it tries to
  eject the CD instead of disconnecting the ipod. Besides, when it does
  not autodetect the devices such as ipod or usb devices when I plug them
  in or when I push the "autodetect" button in the amarok settings.
  
  I tried to erase the ppa repository and downgrade all the packages to
  the official ones, and everything went to work ok again.
  
  I attach the output from "dcop kded mediamanager fullList"
