Re: [Evolution] Evolution not starting (SanthanaKrishnan)

Hi :)
The 12.04 LTS has 'only' 2 years official support left.  However it
has had more of the equivalent of "Service Packs" so it should be a
lot smoother.  By the time the official support runs out there will be
2 choices to upgrade to = the 14.04 and the 16.04, both LTSes.

If you look at the DistroWatch page for Ubuntu;
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubuntu
or you can type it in as
http://distrowatch.com/ubuntu
then you will find links to Documentation and to various types of User Support.

Canonical offer technical support in bundles such as 1 month or 6
months support in order to help new people become more familiar.
However you still have the free support that DistroWatch gives links
to.

I think one of the main tricks worth knowing is that if you press the
"Windows" key then a HUD appears which lets you type in a rough idea
of roughly what you want to do and then the HUD displays possible
relevant options.  This works both within programs and from the
desktop.

Regards from
Tom :)
