Error runnning Songbird 1.0 :(

[ginbuntu]

I have installed songbird 1.0 using the package I downloaded from getdeb.net but when running songbird I got a invalid pointer error.

jin@jin-desktop:~$ songbird 
*** glibc detected *** ././songbird-bin: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0xb1f210e0 ***

My system: Ubuntu Intrepid 32bit
Does any one know how to fix this? Or another way to install Songbird?

thanks in advance

[tjwallace]

My friend is also having similar problems in Ubuntu 8.10 64bit. Here is the songbird ticket: http://getsatisfaction.com/songbird/..._64_wont_start

[tjwallace]

I tried the 32bit version of Songbird and it seems to be working properly...

[tjwallace]

This problem may have been caused by the -10 kernel. Running the -9 kernel does not cause this problem.

[s_spiff]

sudo apt-get remove libvisual-0.4

Try that out

[mmssmith]

Removing libvisual did the trick for me. Thanks!

[ibaquez]

That worked for me until updating to Karmic Koala, then Songbird wont start again

I tryed: sudo apt-get remove libvisual-0.4-0 (moved to libvisual-0.4-0 in KK) but now, it doesnt work

Sorry for the bad news!
