Re: Dear Akonadi!
Says Mark Greenwood on the kubuntu-users list:
Maybe that helps somebody.This bug has been around for ages. It's raised upstream...
A workaround is to add an Autostart item (using System Settings) of /usr/bin/akonadictl start.Comment

Re: Dear Akonadi!

I'm giving your 'tip' a shot. I had already marked KOrganizer Reminder Daemon to run at login, and for a few reboots, launching Kontact, which starts Akonadi, went fine - the resource agents were 'found', so no Akonadi Server Self Test errors. But this afternoon, when I got home and booted my system and launched Kontact, Akonadi couldn't find the resource agents, so erred.
Rebooted and launched Kontact right away. No Akonadi Server Self Test error. If on every reboot it continues this way, I'll say that my issues with Akonadi are solved.Windows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Dear Akonadi!
Well, booted this morning, and when the Desktop was loaded launched Kontact. Akonadi Server Self Test 14 failed (Resource Agents). Shut down Kontact and relaunch it fixes that. So, this 'tip' isn't the cure-all for my Akonadi issue.Windows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Dear Akonadi!
Decided to try something. Now, after the Desktop has loaded, I click on Akonaditray (in the System Tray) and click Start Akonadi. When the status bar closes, I launch Kontact. So far, no more Test 14 error, and my Contacts are immediately available.Windows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Dear Akonadi!
Thank you claydoh. Can that be input directly into Autostart, or does one have to include that line in an executable script? Autostart allows for Programs or scripts.Windows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Dear Akonadi!
Didn't help me
Still have to close Kontact and relaunch to get access to address book.
Kontact doesn't always restart, have to kill application and then restart it.
9/10 times clicking on "summary" in the side pane locks up Kontact as well.
Can't believe this is going to be released as finished in two days!
I see KDE 4.4.3 is out in the first week of May, perhaps that will help.

Re: Dear Akonadi!
Someone on the Kubuntu-users list has said to try this
create file
start_akonadi.sh:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/akonadictl start
and put in in "~/.kde/env"
Works for me

Re: Dear Akonadi!
Day three since implementing this 'solution' and I've rebooted many times. As soon as the Desktop is loaded I launch Kontact. I've had no Akonadi Server Self Test #14 errors - none.Windows no longer obstructs my view.
