RE: [Evolution] Help: I screwed up my Evolution-1.4.5

[Phyt O Men <phytomen mailandnews com>]

O.K. I did as you said...

I logged out, then CTRL-ALT-F1 and logged in console mode. There was nothing
in /tmp/orbit-root or /tmp/orbit-$USER (because I already deleted the stuff
before logging out). I also ran bonobo-slay. Then I logged back in and tried
to start evolution. ***No Change*** I also rebooted and tried again with no
change.

So to recap:

When starting evolution from a console in KDE3.2.1 I get an error:

(Killing of version of Wombat...) ** (evolutionL5156): WARNING **: Extremely
strange, strange object directories (0)registered with the activation context

and an error window that says:

Cannot access the Ximian Evolution shell.

I have recently rebuilt and installed KDE3.2.1 from source and the
evolution-1.4.6 rpms for Redhat 9 and I have a custom 2.4.25 kernel that I
built.

Help??
