[ubuntu] Evolution Calendar High CPU

linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi all, I've recently upgraded to 12.10 and since that upgrade the evolution calendar has been giving me grief. It often crashes entirely at which point I send a crash report using the GUI that asks me to do so. However sometimes it doesn't crash but instead uses 100% CPU which really slows down my laptop. My initial question is how can I kill the process when it's using such a high CPU. Normally I'd run "sudo kill id" however that doesn't kill this particular process which I find odd. My second question is does anyone have any information on why evolution calendar is (Hardware)

Hi there,I have been trying to sync evolution with google calendar for the last couple of days (not full time, though ).

After having trouble once again with Thunderbird+Lightning after yesterday's updates, I decided to give Evolution a try. I'm liking it so far, but I have the following issue: all the events in my Google calendar which are set as recurrent (say every year, like a birthday) are not showing in my Evolution calendar.

Hi all, I am using Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome 3.4.. My problem is that, the events i add in evolution (version 3.2.3) calendar (Both google and local) doesnot show upon gnome shell calendar situated in the top panel... what should i do? My default calendar app is evolution, i checked... please help me...

I'm sure I had the google calendar type in evolution on opensuse 11.2, now I installed a fresh 11.3 and can't find the google calendar type when adding a calendar in evolution.

Am I missing something? is there something more I should install?

Actually, the main reason I use Evolution over Thunderbird is that I like its google calendar integration better then Thunderbird.

1) I'm looking to write a calendar application in python that will interact with Gnom-shell-calendar. I've asked around, and I was told that the Gnome-shell calendar uses

evolution-data-sever

do get its informaion. I looked around and saw that there is a python module

python-evolution

that allows you to interact with the evolution server.

I would like to import calendar information from outlook (XP) to evolution. The pst-import does not work for me at the moment (Ubuntu 11.10, evolution 3.2.1, it does not recognize pst-files as such, bug filed) and csv-files (even calendar-csv) are imported into the addressbook. Readpst seems to work for email (folders) only. It should also import words with umlaut and special character.

Hi all :dance:

Nice to be here.

I have Evolution syncing with my Google Calendar, which is working perfectly. However, this calendar's events do not show when I click the time on the top panel in Gnome 3, it shows an empty calendar and agenda.

Is there anyway to select my Google Calendar as the one to show here please?

Many thanks in advance :C

I set up a WebDAV addressbook in evolution, and copied lots of contacts in to it.

I went back and forth with the people at Owncube doing troubleshooting, for the Caldav calendar they provide using Owncloud's software. Apparently, I've got the URL and the settings and password and everything right, but every time I try to connect I get "7- Server returned unexpected response."

They say they've gotten it to work with Evolution in Ubuntu.
