It's not the OS, it's the distribution that's the issue - we all (mostly) run the same OS, i.e. Linux! (OK, I know there's some BSDers and Windows users out there - but you know what I mean.) But there does seem to be more problems with Evo on Ubuntu than on any other distro. It's probably down to the way Evo, or one of the libraries it links to, has been configured/compiled. > > > > I want to report concerning the mysterious "loss" of data.

As I said previously - if E-D-S dies, then all the calendars etc. are disabled. Try killing the E-D-S process while Evo is running and you will see what I mean. And if it is E-D-S that's the problem - and "Tasque" (whatever that is!) is talking to E-D-S, then it will suffer from the same problems as Evo does.
