What is the correct way to restart evolution-alarm-notify manually? I've tried to do it just by executing /etc/xdg/autostart/evolution-alarm- notify.desktop. The process started but Evolution could not start at all until I rebooted the system. > I hope it still is and will be :) There is an effort to make it better > during the time, but it sometimes brings in also new bugs or > regressions. Well, without a good reliable reminder system Evolution looses a lot. Just as an example - being get used to be reminded about my appointment in advance, when the problem in discussion showed up at the first time, I simply missed an important appointment. :-( OK. Thanks for your kind response. I were the only one. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
