Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

I minimize Evolution, and go away for a while (20 minutes - 2 hours).
When I try to restore Evolution from the bottom edge panel, a very crude
approximation of the Evolution screen comes up, but with no content. In
fact, the area where the messages would be listed, and the area where
the preview would display, are completely transparent; I can see the
desktop in those areas. If I was composing a message when I minimized
Evolution, and try to restore the message from the bottom edge panel, a
similar thing happens. I get a crude approximation of the compose
message window.

In all cases, I click on the "X" in the upper-right corner, and get a
dialog box, " "Evolution" is not responding" and I click the "Force
Quit" button. That kills it. When I relaunch Evolution, I get a dialog
box with a message like, "Evolution was not properly shut down. Do you
want to restore what you were doing?". I click "Restore" and it comes
back fine. I just have to click "View -> Show Preview".

This has been happening for about 10 days, and happens about 20% of the
time.
