Hi all,
I just upgraded my main system from OpenSuSE 10.3 to 11.0. I use evolution for my calendar and mail, and as I've done in the past, I made a backup of my home directory before doing the new install. Then I copied back the contents of ~/.evolution, ~/.gconf/apps/evolution, and ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution. I thought that was all I had done in the past, and that had been sufficient to restore all my mail configurations, folders, etc. But this time it doesn't seem to have worked. When I start evolution, it seems to come up as a new install, and starts taking me through the wizard to set it all up.
Can anyone suggest what I might have done wrong?
Simon, Follow exactly these steps. 1. Start evolution in the new system go through the first steps. Then close it 2. Force shoutdown $ evolution --force-shutdown $ gconftool-2 --shutdown 3. Copy the folders from old to new, you must have all files from the ~/.evolution and ~/.gconf/apps/evolution directories. -=terry(Denver)=- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
