Well I seem to have managed to remove the issue with the keyring dialogue box popping up.  Thing is I am not 100% sure which of my actions managed to shift it.  Here is what I did.I searched the internet for solutions to my problem, but whilst I found mention of software that is currently in use hav…

I removed Evolution, but it still wants to use a keyring.

In my last post I mentioned that I had tried Evolution out as a mail client and had found it to be lacking some must have features.  Particularly it does not allow you to drag and drop objects between components.Well last night I tried Thunderbird as a mail client and I am happier with it than Evolu…

Hi,

AFAIK evolution isn't just used as email client but also for some inner system messaging stuff I don't fully understand (yet).
On my system for example ther are three background processes running although I have never started evolution! These are:
"evolution-alarm-notify"
"evolution-data-server-2.26"
"evolution-exchange-storage"

Have you looked into the keyring settings (accessible under "system" menu, and then click through)? Maybe you can grant {whatever residues of evolution are still on your system} access to {whatever it wants to do} there? I've looked there myself but found no "evolution" entries. But I haven't set any keyring for it, after all...
(I sometimes feel the gnome keyring thingie is a bit buggy. But it was worse with intrepid than it is now with jaunty)

Hope this will sort out for you,

cheers

Hmm, I'm having some issues with this blog software you are using. I wanted to comment your latest entry but it doesn't work... Also if you mistype the anti bot code all your entered text gets deleted...

To say something about the Evolution topic: Those daemons Dennis mentioned (or at least the two latter of them) are used for syncing the calendar database between different programs. So if you want to sync your PDA or handy with let's say Lightning in Thunderbird or the small calendar of the Clock panel applet you will probably still need to set up those daemons to work woth both of them as a kind of middle layer though you don't start Evolution at all. That's really annoying (since I also use Thunderbird and don't use a calendar at all) and remembers me of IE in Windows...

One of the minor annoyances that I have found in Linux turns out to be a pretyy easy fix.  Being Used to Firefox on a windows system, the backspace button is used to navigate backwards to a prevous page.  No doubt there is a similar Linux alternative button, but I am too stubborn to change my behavi…

Earlier this week I erased my Dell Mini 9 netbook's drive and installed Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix.  For those of you not familiar with this version of Ubuntu, there is a GUI front end that is designed with small screen netbooks in mind.  I downloaded the *.img file from Ubuntu's website and also fol…
