Yes last night I managed to get Spotify working - it gave a bit more time
before it crashed so every time I madly clicked on the 'accept' button or the
button to close the box and after the third restart it was working. I'm having
soundcard problems now -  keep having to restart it but my guess is that it's
unrelated.
