[Rhythmbox-devel] startup oddness

[William Jon McCann <mccann pha jhu edu>]

Hi,

Just got back from a month in Europe and am trying to get the rb applet 
into shape.  I got the property bag notification stuff working.  Along 
the way I noticed a strange problem when rb starts up (CVS build from 
today).

% bin/rhythmbox
INFO (  353: 0) Initializing GStreamer Core Library version 0.6.3
INFO (  353: 0) CPU features: (00000000) MMX SSE
INFO (  353: 0) registry: loaded global_registry in 0.148872 seconds
           (/var/cache/gstreamer-0.6/registry.xml)
[hang]

When I attach strace I find:
% strace -p 353
futex(0x81e0310, FUTEX_WAIT, 16, NULL

However, when I run rb with strace directly it starts up fine (but slowly):
% strace bin/rhythmbox

Any ideas?

Jon
