Hi
I have just bitten the bullet and installed the 4.4 beta. I'm fond of the white knuckle rides- lost the desktop because the plasma desktop did not get installed but with alt+F2 I was able to launch Firefox and find the fix on the web.
Anyway I digress. As I find whenever I upgrade kde I am greeted by my old "friend" akonadi. As previous, it runs and holds everything up, and then returns errors. I have tried the old trick of disabling it, but it seens I can't do so, probably because in the last few days I have switched from Thunderbird and Lightning to the Kontact suite. That has the advantage of a usable export of address book data but everything else seems on a par. So there ain't much in it.
It would I have to say be far simpler to switch back but before I do is there anything you think I can do to fix this? The output is below.
Thanks
Ian
