Since an update about 8 weeks ago, Spotify native will no longer start. Below is the terminal output:

tom@blacknight:~$ spotify

tom@blacknight:~$

Does anyone know of a solution? There's been a couple of updates since but neither have fixed this :(

Unfortunately for those of you who still have this issue, I don't have an answer, however fortunately for myself, the issue resolved itself after the latest update (which removed the gnome support package). It's even working on Ubuntu 11.10!

The clearing the cache, suggested here would make the login screen appear (I assume any user saved information was being cleared), however logging in again would cause it to crash.
