Amberol and G4

Hello Garuda users.

I am having trouble running both Amberol and G4. How is it possible that they keep closing after adding a playlist?

But I have no problem installing from terminal. I installed these two apps from Octopi.
The problem that continuous crash arises after adding to the playlist on the two corresponding music players

Please post the garuda-inxi.

Install applications only with pacman in the terminal.

Also, this forum is not a general forum for technical support.
If you have problems with software, ask the developer of those applications on Github/Gitlab, in the forums there, etc.
Search for it using your favorite web browser. Don't assume others will do this work for you.

Sorry, I personally have never heard of Amberol and G4.

Maybe try removing them and reinstalling from terminal

sudo pacman -S amberol g4music

Also, just a shot in the dark, keep an eye on memory usage with htop or similar when they crash.

Could be a bottlenck

I tried again, but there is little to do unfortunately. I don't think the RAM is the problem because they are simple music players. Which music player requires more than 200 MB of RAM to listen to simple music?!

In this case I wanted to test them to understand if they were better than Deepin Music Player, which is not very optimized on KDE Plasma environment

Garuda Linux Minimum requirements

  • 4 GB RAM
  • Video card with OpenGL 3.3 or better

IDK nothing about (old) apple hardware, but your intel GPU use parts of your RAM.
Check with htop, and again, ask the developer from apps you are using.
