Re: garnome 2.12.2.1 evolution.desktop missing

Donald,

The errant file should have been installed under

	/opt/garnome/share/applications

If you look in the evo build directory you will find the file under

	desktop/evolution/work/main.d/evolution-2.4.2.1/data

Hmmm... Why is startx complaining???  Are you starting you
garnome-2.12.2.1 in a directory with pre-existing "dot gnome" files?  If
so, try the following:

* create a clean user account
* copy over the .xinitrc or .xsession file that you are using to launch
GARNOME
* log in as the new user.

If the problem "goes away" we can discuss how to rescue your existing
account.
