all multimedia applications crash

[chasper99]

I have a strange problem after a upgrade from breezy to dapper drake on my amd64 system.
All the multimedia applications used to run under breezy. Now they crash under dapper.

Amarok:
amaroK: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
amaroK: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp.
amaroK: [Loader] amarokapp probably crashed!
The kernel log message:

Rhythmbox:

The kernel log message:

The kernel log message:

Kaffeine first starts. When I try to set the engine to 'Kaffeine' it crashes immediately.
no kernel log message for the kaffeine crash
The backtrace provides some more information:

I am not used to heavy debugging. If somebody can advise me how to get detailed information about the reasons for all the crashes and probably a fix as well, it would we very much appreciated.

Sorry for the rather long posting.

Thanks for any help.

Re: all multimedia applications crash

try reinstalling the xine engine (removing all preferences as well using synaptic)

Re: all multimedia applications crash

Hello

I removed all the xine related packages and made sure that all configuration files for xine were removed.
After re-installtion of xine and amarok the same happens. No change, the applications crash.

In another atempt to find a reason for the problem I removed xine and all related applications again. Then I only installed totem-gstreamer and totem. totem crashes as well.
Kernel Log:
[ 4776.988286] totem[6133]: segfault at 0000000000000008 rip 00002aaaaaab3dff rsp 00007ffffff42e80 error 4

So it seems that the problem is not related to xine.

Sound works ok. I tested that using mpg123.

Any idea about the reason behind?

Thanks
