No such user?

Hopefully someone who already compiled Evo 1.3.92 on his own can speak
up. I am afraid, I won't be too much of help for you...

Very good point. Dial up, poor Tony. DSL flatrate here, download doesn't
bother me... :-)

Sure, and I would love to help more.

Unfortunately, that's some of the books I always wanted to read. You
don't wanna know, how much unread books are wasting space right beside

Think, you are right. Although you really should blame RH for Evolution
dependencies on KDE... ;-)

What about a second partition for your working environment besides the
demo system?

You're welcome, every time again...
