Lennard, your question let me play around something. And I got a
solution -- it works -- although it is rather a dirty hack...

The attached shell script should do it. Run it instead of evolution from
path.


Some notes: I remembered, the values in xlm config files are stored in
ASCII coded. And I found the value thats responsible for the first
displayed screen: Shell/Views/0 / DisplayedURI

The script patches that value with 'evolution:/summary' and lets other
DisplayedURI fields untouched.

After changing, it runs evolution. When finished, Evolution has to be
killed. Thats necessary, because changes in config.xmldb aren't
recognized if not.

So, you will have to 'killev' before first running that script.


Have fun...
