1. Fonts (This may be something I should ask in the Xandros or kde forums, but here goes anyway) Not evo fonts, but system display fonts. My desktop resolution is set to 1152 x 870 but the evo toolbar(s) and general interface display as if they were at a much lower resolution. Is there a config file I should be tweaking that would make the evo interface correspond more closely to the desktop settings?
evolution is a gnome application, therefore it accepts your gnome settings. it won't care about your kde settings. :-) hmm. you can change gnome's menubar and toolbar *font* in the gconf (a kind of registry for gnome) by changing the key "/desktop/gnome/interface/font_name". evolution's email body font is stored at the directory "/apps/evolution/mail/display/fonts". you can edit gconf graphically by using "gconf-editor" or at the shell by "gconftool-2". if the entire ui is way too big, there's also a gnome setting for the screen resolution (perhaps that's your point) at the directory "/desktop/gnome/screen/default/0/" ("default" and "0" may vary i guess). and no, gnome's settings aren't only available by hacking gconf, one can also access some of these items by the gnome control center (but since you're running kde, i don't know which parts of gnome are installed on your computer, so i thought i'd write the save way). ;-) since parts of gconf are stored in memory it *can* happen that values do get reset; write again if that happens (i'm hungry and want to eat now - so i'm not going to write that down here :-).
2. Contacts: If I create a contact then choose "add to address book"
where do you do that?! i thought "add to address book" only exists in the mailer when right-clicking on an email address? please explain that.
