Re: cvs runs as root but not as user

Hi Armin and Thanks

I found another web page suggesting installation oaf 
evolution-data-server-dev and evolution-dev which I did, and then 
recompiled and installed.  Then I erased the sockets as you instructed 
and now it goes a bit further but can not find the addressbook and hangs 
...?

Thoughts?
Thanks

Jim
