I have been successfully using evolution since early this year, and think it is a great product. However, a
short while ago, I applied some "urgent" upgrades recommended by red-carpet, and Evolution doesn't work any
more. I have completly removeed gnome and kde, and re-installed evolution 1.0.8 - but the problem still
exists. I even went as far as installed Ximian Desktop, but I still can't get my emails.
The problem manifests itself in a number of ways:
1) The evolution GUI won't display at all. I found (by tinkering with killev), that the summary applet/page
was causing this problem. If I killed it, the GUI displayed, and allowed me to pull down the headings for
all my emails. The actual error I was seeing when I ran the modified killev was:
evolution-shell-WARNING **: Error changing interactive status of component
OAFIID:GNOME_Evolution_Summary_ShellComponent to TRUE -- IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0
2) While I can now see the heading for all of my emails, as soon as I try to open one, the GUI freezes. This
applies to both my local emails, and those on my Microsoft Exchange server. Running killev will kill MOST of
the processes most of the time, but not sometimes not them all. I usually end up with one or more
evolution-mail processes which CANNOT be killed. This prevents me from accessing the emails alter. The only
way of getting rid of these "unkillable" processes is to restart my system. The following is an example of
what is left behind (ps -aef | grep -i evolution):
