Description Tristram Chapman 2005-05-03 20:13:53 UTC
evolution b0rks on me whenever i try to compose, forward or generally do anything but recieve emails, specifically when i hit the space or backspace key (this doesn't happen in calendar at all). when typing an email, i can type as much as i like providing i don't hit space or bksp, if i do i get "unknown error".
 this has happened in both 2.0.4 and 2.0.3, before that i did a reinstall of my gentoo system, but it did work before hand (unsure whether it was 2.0.2 or 2.0.3).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.click new message
2. attempt to type a sentance 
3.when it gets to the space key evolution will die.

Actual Results:  
it all went up in a puff of smoke (unknown error)

Expected Results:  
let me write a message :)

Does this still occur with evolution 2.2?

> Does this still occur with evolution 2.2?

i can't get evolution data server to build (as i'm running x86, not ~x86), so i
can't build evolution-2.2.1... for the moment i'm rebuilding pango and gtkhtml,
then building evolution against the freshly built systems.. i'll give 2.2
another go if this doesn't work, and i'll get back to you
Comment 3 Nathaniel McCallum (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-02 14:22:46 UTC
Have you had any luck with evo 2.2?
