If you are using this for real work etc, you shouldn't be upgrading your important working environment for no real reason. This is the prime reason most corporations are a full release of an OS behind the current release. Its a hard way to learn, almost the same way people learn to make backups when they don't have one to restore after a crash. Keep bleeding edge away from a working environment, create a separate partition for bleeding edge.
Welllllll....Ian. Don't know exactly what you are telling me here. I am a true believer in "stable" (been there - done that and regretted it) but everyone on this list says 4.4 is "It" The "Cat's Meow?" so to speak. So I just jumped and upgraded to 4.4 because I was so dissapointed with KDE4 up to that point, hoping, of course, (ignorantly) that 4.4 was the answer. Apparently not. When will I learn??? Don't always rely on hearsay in the mailing lists, you need to do your own tests first. Small e.g. People have been saying Konq and firefox are fast browsers on Linux, but to me they are slow compared Opera. Some people just get carried away with the enthusiasm of a new release and haven't really used in earnest. I still use KDE 3.5 for all important work because it does the job. I use 4.4 for the mailing lists and occasionally bring my backed up mail into Kontact to see how and if it works. e.g. Try and suspend a reminder in Kontact in 4.4, you can only dismiss them. Soooo....chastising me, as I have done to myself, is deserved, it would be nice if people who are in the know, would help me to extricate myself from this morass. Sorry, chastising wasn't my intention. Any and all ideas, suggestions, would be most helpful. At this moment I cannot send out emails to my distribution lists and the backlog grows significanly. I would if i could apart from suggesting a downgrade and reinstall from backups. Dear God, I pray that I will not have to rebuild lists with hundreds of Email addresses. Better to rely on your own resources... :o) Bob S Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Why was this moved from the opensuse-kde list? It seems an appropriate topic for that list? Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

In my case, i get the reminder on the day and the only button enabled to press is the "Dismiss all". You can change the the suspend time but the suspend buttons remain greyed out. I just did another test with a fresh appointment and i got the same result. Is it possible to have the reminder daemon running without launching Kontact? regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
