It is xine-lib-1.1.7 on Fedora 7. You can find all my
system info in my original post:
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/amarok/2007-June/003707.html

I tried it both with the binary package and
self-compiled package. 
I thought there was a problem with xine in the first
place. But I can play mp3's fine with xine when I'm on
the console. Kaffeine can play them as well without
freezing. Now,

-What should I do?
-Do the backtraces I sent mean anything?

I'm out of ideas. Thanks,
Orcan
