Xen on amd64
I noticed there's an unstable release of Xen on xensource.org for amd64. Has anyone tried this? I have an amd64 box I want to use as a dev system, running 64-bit Debian, but I need to develop a small custom distro for a thin client system. I thought maybe I could install Xen and then put AMD64 Debian and a 32-bit-something-else on it. Simon

Re: Evolution doesn't start anymore because of a dbus problem
Are you sure this is related to amd64 ? or even Debian ? Maybe you would get a beter answer if you would search on the Evolution site. Anyway, after a quick reading through your mail I would try : - Remove package evolution-plugins; - Start evolution; - Search for and un-check evil option about sending a message to dbus; - Re-install package evolution-plugins. And don't you _ever_ touch that check box again ;o) Alternatively figure out which of the many plugins is attempting the evil deed, and ... shoot it ('rm' will work too). If it doesn't help, sorry.
