I have had some problems with galeon sometimes not starting because
gconfd is not available, or something similar. I simply ran gconfd
from a shell, and things worked.

I figure some gnome developers assume people run everything from
gnome...

(Though evolution should normally start this daemon if it is not
running, if I understand bonobo correctly)

Ok,

I got evolution working again, and like some of its features while I bemoan 
the lack of unicode support. I will test it later today.

Back to korganizer:
I tried to import into outlook both a vcalendar and an icalender file exported 
by korganizer, and neither was accepted. Any clue why?

Palm+Outlook compatible PIM

2003-03-11 Thread Arie Folger
I am trying to cooperate with other fellows in this office. However, being the 
only Linux user, I haven't found yet a satisfying manner to share my calendar 
with the secretary, who uses Windows. I am using Korganizer, but will have no 
compunctions switching to evolution, if, by listmembers' recommendation, it 
is better suited to the task AND adequately supports Hebrew.

I looked into the possibility of running my appointment calendar on a web 
server, but found nothing that can both import and export vcalendar.

Finally, I'd like to share the info with my palm, which is possible with 
either korganizer or evolution, but is less obvious with other programs, 
especially if they don't use vcal.

I was also looking into the possibility of running an LDAP server with the 
vcal on it, but it seems that ldap is used rather for contact databses, but 
not calendars.

Oh, and if I get that choice, I'd like to be able to import more than one set 
of national holidays, one of which is the Jewish calendar.

Any recommendations?


Thanks,

Arie

Yes, but what will I do until they produce something useable. Is there a 
temporary fix? I tried saving to vcal and emailing the file, but outlook on 
the other machine choked on it. I'll now try Ical and see.

Also, is there a way to import cvs into korganizer?

I must say, I just tried evolution and was not happy.

I was under the impression that you searched for a server-side solution;
but if you're simply looking for a mail client that can send and receive
appointment requests/responses from Outlook, evolution will do it quite
seamlessly.
However, it does not seem to support Hebrew at all.

I would try it again- bediavad - but it suddenly refuses to start. says 
something about bonobo conf not starting. I deleted the dotfiles, to no 
avail. I'll try again tomorrow.

It is just my secretary, my palm and my desktop that have to share. However, I 
did not specify the method. I am still considering a web based method, but 
found nothing yet in php that is polished enough to convince my secretary.
