When I use the cable connection, I get timeout errors on seemingly random accounts. Different accounts each time I do a send/receive.

I show two packages available; gnome-session-default-session and gnome-session-fallback-session. Neither of these are installed. I use KDE as the default DM but I know I need some Gnome stuff for some Gnome apps I use. I had relied on openSUSE to install the needed dependencies and start the required apps/services. Actually, aside from some minor things, like the missing contacts, and not picking up user accounts when replying, Evolution seems to be working rather well.

I have filed a bug report 818977 Thanks I'm curious about the naming of that folder, how on earth did it end up as 'C'? It's historic. From the net somewhere... In the C programming language, the locale name C “specifies the minimal environment for C translation” (C99 §7.11.1.1; the principle has been the same since at least the 1980s). As most operating systems are written in C, especially the unix-inspired ones where locales are set through the LANG and LC_xxx environment variables, C ends up being the name of a “safe” locale everywhere. POSIX specifies that both C and POSIX must be valid locale names, with the same neutral settings. So 'C' is from the 'C' language. The C locale basically comes down to 7-bit ASCII. P. THANK YOU!

[Evolution] evolution crashing
Quite often, evolution crashes. (Evo 2.30.1.2 on openSuse 11.3 on top of KDE) It just goes away. If I start it from a command prompt, I can see quite a few errors, the final ones being fatal (of course).

Today, I decided to visit bugzilla to see if I could find some reference to a similar problem or the the error messages I have been getting. Perhaps even post a bug report. This would be the preferred way, would it not? So, using Firefox, I went to https://bugzilla.gnome.org. I got a page that said there was an internal server error.
