[opensuse] 10.3 and evolution
I have installed 10.3 on my laptop and have copied my .evolution folder to the laptop but when I go to start evolution it has no knowledge of my connections. What else do I need to copy over? -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
You gotto have your .gconf/apps/evolution folder also copied. (and kill/shutdown gconfd daemon) -Srini. On Thu, 2007-10-04 at 14:06 -0400, Kenneth Schneider wrote:

HowTo move Evolution data and setup from one computer to other one or to save/restore 1. Force shutdown******************************** In the Old computer: $ evolution --force-shutdown In the New One: $ evolution --force-shutdown $ gconftool-2 --shutdown 2. Copy 2 folder from the old to the new******** Just create a new temp folder and move those directories in the new computer (safety <g>) Copy the folders from old to new, you must have all files from the ~/.evolution and ~/.gconf/apps/evolution directories. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ken there is an answer for the required directories over on the Ubuntu list, but of more interest is that there is a backup\migration tool for Evolution floating around out there. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Well I neither belong to or need to belong to any Ubuntu lists and no tool was just floating around on either my desktop or laptop. WTF is the reason for keeping both separated in the first place? It sure as hell can't be security. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
