You should report it either to Packman maintainer of that Songbird or report that upstream, it’s not Novell’s responsibility to fix that.

thing is, i did searched for this, however i could not find similarities to it. so i am not sure where the bug is… :cry:

more info: my music is located on external devices. both devices go to sleep if they are inactive for 10 minutes. both are encrypted with truecrypt. could there be a problem (timeout etc.?)
