One side effect of that is that I can no longer reach the "Preferences" menu within Evolution. It crashes with the error message GConf:ERROR:gconf-client.c:1202:gconf_client_key_is_writable: assertion failed: (entry != NULL) This sounds like a simple GConf fix, but I have no idea where the key is located. Alternatively, there is often a .something file that can be deleted that restored things to proper working order. If there is, what is that file? Otherwise, evo seems to work fine, though it does drop the saved passwords to log in to my mail host. System is i386 7-STABLE, Gnome 2.26.1. Advice would be most appreciated. If further info is needed, I can recompile with debugging flags. Frank
