amarok install problem

[Greg Voris]

Please find quoted below my atempt to get help with Amarok 1.3.  I have 
removed Amarok and reinstalled twice; but there must be something I'm doing 
wrong as I get the same results and the preferences seem to stay there.  Is 
there a setting that would prevent audio from leaving this prog. and yet work 
in an other?
Also I was told to install 1.4 I've tried and I keep getting a message that 
another file is needed, any ideas or is there a rpm for the whole thing so 
that I don't have four separate rpm's?

  Product:  amarok
  Component:  general
  Version:  1.3.1
  Status:  RESOLVED
  Platform:  unspecified
  Resolution:  INVALID
  Reporter:  Greg Voris
  Assigned to:  Amarok Developers

  Version:           1.3.1 (using KDE 3.4.2, Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - 
Cooker) 
 Compiler:          Target: i586-mandriva-linux-gnu 
 OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-12mdk 
 
 Might be an install problem, I don't know enough to say for certain. 
 I copied music files from my ntfs drive, started to "build collection" in 
amarok 1.3.1.  I played several tunes, noticed that the % had stopped at 49% 
(watched it for about 20min). 
 Amarok would not close and I had to use the power buttom to get control back. 
 Now the bar graph shows music playing; but no sound from the speakers.   
 The system works fine, plays the same music using Kaffeine. 
 As I said, I'm new ti Linux; but I'll copy and send anything I can to help.

   I downloaded   1.4.0 in 4 rpm's.  when I try to installthey each says they 
 need someother file.  Isn't there 11 rpm to overwrite the old files?  as you 
 can see from my posts I tried to remove and replace the exsisting file with 
 no improvement.
