I do have everything that was in my home directory, so I suppose I could have something corrupted in the those, but I would be surprised that it would have this behavior.
I wouldn't...
Try creating a new user.
Do you mean a new linux user with a new home directory?
Yes :-)
Then reinstall Evolution and set everything up again?
No!
(That sounds a little like complaining, I am not, just trying to be clear.)
You don't need to reinstall anything. Supossedly, you have Evolution and everything else installed in the system, you just create a new user (yast) with a new home.
Remember, linux is a multiuser operating system, programs are installed once, and are available for all users.
Then you "simply" log in as that new user, configure Evolution (don't copy over files, just in case), and see if it locks up again. My guess is that it won't lock, but if it does, it is a reproductible bug you should report in bugzilla.

Sorry to take so long to respond to the list. I attempted Carlos' suggestion, but the config process for the new user was unstable and after several attempts -- the wizard closing at various places -- I came to the conclusion that my whole set up was unstable. I deleted my root directory, reformatted, and reinstalled from a fresh DVD. Same results on both the existing and new user. So I jumped distros and installed Gutsy Ubuntu. Nearly all Evo problems have disappeared. Thanks for trying. Maybe I will come back in a version or two. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
