Problem with Evolution, GGV, Yelp, etc....

[Arnab Samanta <samanta arnab gmail com>]

Hi all:

       I am having a peculiar problem with my Evolution 2.0.4 for the
last few days. I am running FC3 on 2.6.11 kernel. The problem is that
Evolution crashes. This is in the sense that if I exit the program I
can't open it again. To do that, I have noticed, I need to log-out and
log-in. But it works (that is closing/opening evolution again) for the
first few moments after logging in only, then again the problem
reappears. So to solve that I would need to log-out/log-in again! Now
I did run gdb to try to backtrace anything. This is the result:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am totally lost as why Orbit is having problems. After seeing this
problem I checked with few other programs too...many of them are
having problems.

Like, I can't start ggv. It shows the following error:

(ggv:29018): GGV-WARNING **: Could not get GGV control: 'Unknown CORBA
exception id: 'IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0''

(ggv:29018): GGV-WARNING **: Failed to create a new window.

(ggv:29018): GGV-WARNING **: No windows could be opened. Exiting...


Then yelp has this error:

(yelp:29061): Bonobo-CRITICAL **: file bonobo-running-context.c: line
453 (bonobo_running_context_auto_exit_unref): assertion `object !=
NULL' failed

Yelp-ERROR **: Could not activate Yelp: 'Unknown CORBA exception id:
'IDL:omg.org/CORBA/OBJECT_NOT_EXIST:1.0''
aborting...

I thought epiphany exited too.

Could anybody drop a hint as to what is happening? Thanking you in advance!


regards,

Arnab.
