I had the disk space too, the first time. After the crash, I ran again and then didn't have the disk space. Oh -- you mean you had the disk space the second time? Oh no... > > Not so fast.

Did a sync (after copying the old addressbook.db into the new one), and now all of my contacts entries are duplicated in both places! Also, evolution crashes every time I delete or modify a contact. I'll try to get a backtrace for a bug report when I have time. > The problem I then had was with evolution and sync'ing my Tasks and > Calendar.

I haven't had this problem (yet). And at this point syncing seems to be reasonably reliable, I can even delete stuff from the Palm and have it deleted on the desktop, which is how I'm removing all of the duplicate entries. > > And what the heck is up with such massive breakage in a x.0.3 release?? > > Didn't evolution 2.0 come out many months ago? > > Got to admit, after some 5 hours of struggling with my issues and trying > to provide good information for a bug report, I was wondering the same > thing. Glad to hear I'm not the only one...
