Description ddavid_43 2013-12-30 00:48:36 UTC

When Started Rhythmbox starts but show a grey screen with nothing on it. I am using Ubuntu 13.04 and Rhythmbox 2.98-0ubuntu5. I expected to have the interface and be able to start playing music but I instead got the grey screen that I can't do anything with.

I'm going to need a stack trace from rhythmbox once it's reached "the grey screen that I can't do anything with".

Comment 2 ddavid_43 2013-12-30 00:59:57 UTC

I would I do that?

Comment 3 ddavid_43 2013-12-30 01:02:43 UTC

How would I get a stack trace?

ddavid_43: If that's still a problem, could you please install debug packages for rhythmbox and glib2 and provide an updated stacktrace?
