I had the same problem (2.4.20 kernel, Athlon CPUs, Gentoo 1.4, updated on Monday 21st.) I got round the problem by re-emerging mozilla - however the fonts are now crap, and galeon still doesn't work - so I suspect that the problem is not truely an evolution problem, but is demonstrated by launching evolution... Perhaps obvious, but does it help at all if you move your ~/evolution folder away (ie to ~/evolution.bak or similar) and then try to start evolution. there's a chance that the configuration files/syntax/organisation have changed from 1.2.1 to 1.4, and are possibly incompatible with the new version. Sorry for the late response. I tried Ian's suggestion and re-emerged Mozilla and now Evolution works. I don't use Galleon at all, and my fonts appear to be the same as they always were. I haven't a clue as to why rebuilding Mozilla might have an effect on Evolution. This is an odd one. if you had a really old mozilla (early 1.3 incarnation) i might know where the problem came from. There mozilla and system libs did some strange things. closing as nonreproducable |
