I would like to like gnome since it doesn't look like something from Disney, but it seems to fail all the time with no hint at all of what to do about it.
Using the latest 2.8 rpm's from Mr. Ogley, I invoke "music player". When I try to add anything to a library or playlist, I get nothing bu a box with messages like "Failed to create gnomevfssrc element: check your installation" and no hint about what to do about it.
