Comment 20 for bug 386676

Confirming the bug. Status as it stands now:

 - Outstanding request for valgrind leak check on b.k.o 197242
 - b.fd.o 16772 progress has stalled pending some sort of memory leak check
 - Amarok forum has a confirmation from a user with an Nvidia card (jaja)

For anyone experiencing this bug, please report back to Myriam on bugs.kde.org 197242 with the results of running the valgrind memory check. She has very clear instructions and the process itself should be relatively simple for anyone experiencing the bug.

Confirming here in Ubuntu. I personally suspect some sort of interaction between Amarok's large amount of pixmaps in the cover manager and some part of the xserver, which had much upheaval over the past year or so.
