banshee: No visible text in library

[Thomas Brunner]

Banshee on Dapper doesn't show me any text in the library window anylonger. I can play files, I see the blue cursor icon at the song currently playing and I see the song information in the upper notification area or whatever you call that. But I have absolutely no text in the library window.

Just installed it yesterday and imported 6500 songs flawlessly.

When started from console, I get these errors (in case they refer to what I experience):

(Banshee:6808): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: GdkPixbufLoader finalized without calling gdk_pixbuf_loader_close() - this is not allowed. You must explicitly end the data stream to the loader before dropping the last reference.

Which version of banshee do you have? This problem should be solved since ages...

Enable some columns in View/Columns to workaround this

It's the 10.8 version from synaptic, but using your workaround solved the problem. Sorry for bothering you :)
Still strange how this could suddenly happen.

ok, as this is fixed for you now and it's in theory impossible for this bug to reappear with a clean 0.10.8 install I'll close this bug... when someone has this problem again please reopen
