Description Connel Hooley 2010-10-31 22:05:02 UTC 
Banshee crashes on start up. My music folder in my home directory is a symbolic link to a folder on a FAT32 partition. When Banshee opens it says "Please move your music to /home/<user>/music" in a black box on the bottom of the window and then closes. Here is the output of 'banshee --debug':
