Opening the library read-only is currently not feasible : banshee uses the database for caching, so it needs write access for that. Each banshee instance needs its own database file, but I guess they can access the same media files. You can tell banshee to use a different database file than the one at the default location : banshee-1 --db=/path/to/banshee.db -- Bertrand Lorentz <bertrand lorentz gmail com> > http://flickr.com/photos/bl8/ <
