I have noticed why rhythmbox crashes. My OS in mandriva 2007.0. I have my music stored on an external hard disk, (a western digital passport, 120GB, usb2.0). For some reason, mandriva loses the hard disk and the device name changes from /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sdc1. This can happen a couple of times a day. But when this happens rhythmbox crashes. I tried to install rhythmbox from source, but am getting too many errors during compliation. There is no debug packages for rhythmbox on mandriva 2007.0.
This was actually a GStreamer problem, and was fixed in GStreamer 0.10.10.
