[Novalug] Kubuntu: streamripper shuts down after 19 seconds when started by cron

In process of cutting over to Kubuntu, have encountered a frustrating 
problem.  When cron starts streamripper, it shuts down after about 19 
seconds of collection.  The error file that the task redirects output to 
gets created but is zero length.  Streamripper works fine when started 
from a command prompt or from KstreamRipper.  Didn't have this problem 
under kanotix.

Any suggestions?
