[Evolution] Fedora 20 - Evolution - Gnome gui freezes
Everyone, I have 5 users using Fedora 20 that are updated, and each is using Evolution 3.10.4 within the gnome desktop that have reported problems with their desktop 'freezing' during an access of evolution as well as less often firefox. The machines that have reported failures include Dell Optiplex 780, 760, 745, and 755. 780 - VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller] 745 - VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q963/Q965 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) 780 - VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q963/Q965 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) 755 - VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) 760 - VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) This has also happened to me. When the gui freezes, cursor movement is not affected, but I am unable to access or click any active button on evolution or any other part of the desktop. I can switch back and forth from gui to terminal interface by using F2 and F1. The only way I have been able to continue is with a reboot process. I posted this on the Fedora user's group list and received a reply that this had also been observed by another user that made the deduction that the problem occurs not only with evolution, but with firefox. I had been suspicious of firefox, but have only made the firefox observation one time. Apparently those that use the kde desktop even when they use evolution have not reported this problem. John Mellor offered this explanation on the Fedora user's list : > I have also observed this problem, not just in Evolution, but also in > Firefox.

Although John has made this observation in earlier versions of Fedora, I have only made the observation with Fedora 20. If you have suggestions of a remedy, I would very much appreciate it. I am getting user requests to change back to an inferior platform of an operating system, and am not inclined to do so. :) Please help ...

[Evolution] Evolution performance bottleneck
Does anyone have an idea where I should look to find out why my Evolution is now so excruciatingly slow? I am running Evolution 3.12.7 under Gnome 3.14.1 on Opensuse 13.2 (64-bit) on my desktop computer, having moved from Opensuse 13.1. There are 2 email accounts, one under POP (deleting all mails from the POP server after downloading) and the other under EWS. On starting evolution, it seems that the EWS account works as expected, but the POP account mails are being downloaded one at a time needing about 2-3 minutes per email. Is there a time-out somewhere that I can tweak? I think my evolution configuration is a little screwed up anyway. None of the emails I delete are shown in the Wastebasket, but if I expunge the wastebasket it is obviously cleaning up something as it needs the appropriate time to store the folder.

I think one good start is to run one account at a time ( by disabling, not deleting them ) and seeing if this is a problem with one of them ( more likely ) or an interaction between the both .

Re: [Evolution] Fedora 20 - Evolution - Gnome gui freezes
Milan, Here is another capture of the second time today this has happened on my machine. In looking at the contents of this file, it is apparent that "no module named backtrace" is present in my system. If I need to install something else please let me know. I did install evolution-data-server, but there did not appear to be any way to turn this on or off so after the install, I do not know whether it is active or not.

Re: [Evolution] Evolution performance bottleneck
I've got 4 POP accounts and experience the performance issue on openbox and JWM, if I run another resource hungry app. Ass a matter of fact, it happens if I run virtual box and Evolution at the same time. When using Claws instead of Evolution, there are no performance issues, so I guess it's GTK 3 what does cause the issues. My machine is an Athlon dual-core with 4 GiB and my install is a 64-bit architecture Arch Linux, IOW all software are current stable releases from upstream. JFTR even if I would like to run GNOME on my machine, I couldn't, because my machine is much to slow to run GNOME 3. You should test Xfce4, openbox, JWM, Mate or KDE. Yes, even KDE on my machine is ok, but Cinnamon does behave as bad as GNOME 3 does. I suspect you need another WM/DE. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

I did not think of Gnome as being the possible culprit. I have an Intel Pentium dual-core with 1 GB. I would need to familiarise myself with the options for OpenSuse.

Indeed I experience the same or a similar issue, at least a performance issue, if I run Evolution and at least another application that is very resource hungry. I don't have the same problem if I use a GTK 2 based MUA instead, so it might or might not be related to GTK 3 in combination with my computer. The issues I experience with GNOME and Cinnamon are most likely related to the graphics, but when experiencing performance issues, it never can harm to test a lightweight WM/DE. JFTR receiving and storing the received messages works perfect when running Evolution only or Evolution and a few other applications that aren't that resource hungry as virtual box is. Btw. when running a distro that provides a complete environment by a default install, it can't harm to check, if all started services are needed. If I wouldn't use Arch Linux, but install Suse or Debian etc., I would do an "expert" install or what ever it's called. IMO it's better to spend a few minutes to chose what we need, instead of having tons of unneeded services running, that could cause trouble. Perhaps I'm to pedantic, since I use my Linux much for real-time audio work, maybe no unneeded service has really impact to an application as Evolution. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

It's not installed by default because there are other anti-spam tools, including Bogofilter which I personally prefer for individual use (SA is more suitable for server-side filtering). poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

If I may digress for a moment, I have to say I find your quoting style rather confusing. Compare with the style used by essentially everyone else on this and similar lists to see what I mean (or just look at this reply itself for an example). It has the advantage of separating multiple levels of quotes within quotes, which yours doesn't.

There is nothing really happening in evolution, I suppose from the backtrace that you have configured two IMAP accounts with "Listen for server change notification" option on. The evolution is just waiting for the notifications on both accounts. The second backtrace shows that a new mail arrived and it was notifying you about its arrival. This is done through libnotify, which uses D-Bus to talk to the daemon. I guess there happened some consequence on the D-Bus which made your desktop environment (maybe gnome-shell?) in a freeze, even the evolution as such is not frozen. I'm not a gnome-shell developer, thus I wouldn't be much of help here, but I would try to get a backtrace of the running gnome-shell process, to see what it does. Make sure you'll have installed debuginfo package for it, of the same version as the binary package. You can use Pete's command, I would change there only one thing: $ yum --enablerepo=fedora-debuginfo \ --enablerepo=updates-debuginfo install gnome-shell-debuginfo (3.10.4-9.fc20 is the current gnome-shell version in Fedora 20). Also run evolution from a terminal and check what it claims about: $ evolution &>log.txt That may give a hint as well. As you mentioned that the FireFox is also affected, I really do not think this is an application issue (the only common part might be NSS /NSPR and SQLite being used by both Evolution and FireFox), thus it seems to me as a good idea to aim the investigation towards gnome-shell. It can be even lower in the stack, like some D-Bus daemon, or libnotify or... who knows. I do not want to guess too much. Bye, Milan P.S.: I hope you'll not mind, by I second Patrick's request in this thread. Your first reply to my first email in this thread confused me, making it look like you resent my own mail. If you use evolution, I hope you do :), then use Ctrl+L (to Reply to a list), alternatively Ctrl+Shift+R (Reply to all), which should compose a reply with a style as set in Edit->Preferences->Composer Preferences->Reply Style. I think the default is Quoted, which makes it clear which text is new and which old. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
