Thank you for taking a look at it. It still happens several times a
week, probably when something goes wrong with the connection with the
last.fm servers. It just happened again...

Is there a patch somewhere available? I want to make sure Mandriva
2008.1 ships with a fix available. Formal GNOME releases do not matter
for Mandriva, they just integrate the latest version of all packages
available in the development (and next stable) release.

Thanks,
