Re: [Evolution] death after splash-screen

[<gilh sympatico ca>]

Hi Dan (& Alexander),

Thanks very much for the info -- the stack traces for each thread is
below. If you can think of anything that I can try I would appreciate
it -- I'd like me Evolution back :(

BTW, doing an strace on this process yields:

[gilh clydesdale gilh]$ strace -f -FF -p 3722
read(20, "", 4096)                      = 0
read(20, "", 4096)                      = 0
read(20, "", 4096)                      = 0
read(20, "", 4096)                      = 0
read(20, "", 4096)                      = 0
