I have found that it does not, at this time, import KMail.  Much to my
annoyance.  However, Evolution is far superior to
KMail/Korganizer/Kaddressbook that I am willing to fire up KMail on
those occasions that I have to reveiw my legacy mail.

Weird, I get told that there is no importer capable of handling the
folder.

 I have imported kmail just fine. just import the files in your mail dir (i.e. 
 inbox, Linux etc ...) if the folder is empty it will crash evolution, if you 
 have child folders (i.e. inbox - wife) it will import the wife into the 
 inbox folder.

Solution and new esd Question (was Re: [newbie] Error: Couldn'tOpen Audio)

2002-02-20 Thread Nexist Xenda'ths

Hello:

Everything was pointing to /dev/dsp.  First I set the OSS plugin to
/dev/sound/dsp which allowed it to play.  I then set up the ESound
Daemon (esd) with the correct device specified.

the Commands were 
   esd -d /dev/sound/dsp 
   esdctl unlock

Now for the question, where do I put these commands so that they
automatically start (my computer is dual boot,  my wife still uses
Windows XP, so I have to restart the computer a lot).

  I get this error message when I try and run any sound application

  System:  Mandrake 8.1, Ximian Gnome, both updated with Red-Carpet.
  Hardware: K6-350, Soundblaster Live!
  
  fuser reports no processes using any of the devices in /dev/audio
  permissions for the devices are the nexist:audio (nexist is the local
  user).
  local user nexist is in the audio group.
  
  I have received this error under other desktops as well (Blackbox,
  fluxbox, Windowmaker  KDE).

  Give this a try:
  
  In xmmx, go to options-preferences
  on first tab click on output plugin and set it to eSound Output Plugin
  1.2.6 That should get xmms working
 
 Thank you.  UNfortunately, this gives the same error.
