kontact does not start with 4.4RC3

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This workaround might have worked for me. I followed it, except I
didn't have a Special Occasion entry in my
~/.kde/share/config/korganizerrc file.
It didn't work immediately though. I then logged out after creating a
new user to test the idea a new user might not be affected. The new
user was affected just the same as my usual user account. When I
logged back in again to my usual account, kontact started perfectly.

It sure seems to be a weird problem that seems difficult to track
down. I recommend trying the suggestion below, with a logout/login as
a last step. It might work.

Cheers,
Paul.
