I went through some interesting bad installs till I figured out that how
I had my hardware connected & a quirk in my burner made differences. 
Which led to including the CD reader for installs & certain music CDs. 
Anyway, in the process, I uploaded my own /home/bill/ stuff to my
website, then did a full install of MDK 9.2rc2.  After that, I dled the
directories I had stored offsite, including my evolution directory.  The
first time I ran Evo, I got the same problem you describe.  So, I
uninstalled Evo & reinstalled it.  Same results.  A complete shutdown,
then a restart seemed to fix it.  I thought I got away from the Windows
install, reboot, install, reboot, install, reboot cycle. :-)
