amarok 2
so i'm running amarok on my linux box. cause no itunes. my ripped collection is on my windows drive. which is ntfs. which because of some madness really doesn't like to be polled for changes. which is what amarok was doing. ie making gam_server and mount.ntfs-3g use like 50% and 80% cpu respectively. ya. bad dog. no biscuit. fortunately just had to go to setting -> configure amarok -> local collections. and uncheck watch local folders for changes. voila! fixed that nonsense.
