[Bug 409499] New: Evolution 2.22 sound notification config - Docs in error, sound defaults to annoying BEEP!
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=409499 Summary: Evolution 2.22 sound notification config - Docs in error, sound defaults to annoying BEEP! Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Evolution AssignedTo: bnc-team-evolution@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jrobiso2@ford.com QAContact: lakhil@novell.com Found By: --- Environment: 1. openSUSE 11.0 updated from 10.3 w/ Packman, OpenOffice-Stable, Mozilla repo's added. 2. KDE4 installed, but using KDE3 due to beta state of 4. 3. Evolution 2.22 (per distro) used for Exchange account at work, gmail (imap) at home. SCPM choice on startup separates configs. Upon new mail arrival, Evolution gives an ugly "BEEEP!!" whose volume cannot be controlled, muted, etc. even with "setterm -blength 0" in /etc/init.d/boot.local, which is supposed to disable beeps. Evolution 2.22 pdf documentation says "New mail" sound choice is in Edit, Preferences, Mail, General Tab. It isn't. By luck I found that New Mail sound configuration is in the Edit, Plugins, Mail Notification, then click the Configuration tab for that plugin. For previous users, this is REALLY not an expected location for this. Evolution ROCKS!, even in KDE. <satire> But that annoying BEEP just might have someone on a roof with a high-powered rifle soon! </satire> Can we pass this upstream to the Evo guys? I think the easiest solution is to fix the docs, rather than alter the code. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
