Hey all, I've successfully managed to compile Evolution 1.0.3 on Solaris 8, however there was a minor issue that caused a performance problem that I'd like to share with anyone else who's in the same Solaris boat as I am. :)
Essentially, it would take Evolution about 7-9 seconds to bring up a "New Message" window. This is quite excessive, and almost made me stop using the product. The solution was to install the Solaris /dev/urandom patch 112438-01. http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=fpatches%2F112438&zone_32=112438 It now takes < 1 second to bring up the compose window, and Evo itself feels faster. All that needs to be fixed now is the quirkiness within the 'to' and 'cc' fields - stealing focus during Contact name lookup, and not returning focus, and all is well. Though this sounds like a gtkhtml issue. Kudos to the developers for Evolution. Keep up the fine work! -- Michael-John. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
