I get this when starting it - Akonadi Server Self-Test Report =============================== Test 1: ERROR -------- Database driver not found. Details: The QtSQL driver '' is required by your current Akonadi server configuration. The following drivers are installed: QSQLITE. Make sure the required driver is installed.

Details: The current configuration does not require an internal MySQL server. Test 3: SKIP -------- MySQL server error log not tested. Details: The current configuration does not require an internal MySQL server. Test 4: SKIP -------- MySQL server configuration not tested. Details: The current configuration does not require an internal MySQL server. Test 5: SUCCESS -------- akonadictl found and usable Details: The program '/usr/bin/akonadictl' to control the Akonadi server was found and could be executed successfully. Result: Akonadi 1.3.1 Test 6: ERROR -------- Akonadi control process not registered at D-Bus. Details: The Akonadi control process is not registered at D-Bus which typically means it was not started or encountered a fatal error during startup. Test 7: ERROR -------- Akonadi server process not registered at D-Bus. Details: The Akonadi server process is not registered at D-Bus which typically means it was not started or encountered a fatal error during startup. Test 8: ERROR -------- Nepomuk search service not registered at D-Bus. Details: The Nepomuk search service is not registered at D-Bus which typically means it was not started or encountered a fatal error during startup. Test 9: SKIP -------- Protocol version check not possible. Details: Without a connection to the server it is not possible to check if the protocol version meets the requirements. Test 10: ERROR -------- No resource agents found. Details: No resource agents have been found, Akonadi is not usable without at least one. This usually means that no resource agents are installed or that there is a setup problem. The following paths have been searched: '/usr/share/akonadi/agents /usr/share/akonadi/agents'. The XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable is set to '/usr/share:/usr/local/share:/usr/share', make sure this includes all paths where Akonadi agents are installed to.
