I've been using KOrganizer from the kdepim package for a couple years now to store my appointments and todo lists, but I've recently been having issues with the timezone not being applied, causing all appointment times to be shifted into the future. The Configure Time & Date option does nothing at all, and the Configure KOrganizer dialog is an Empty Page (it literally says "Empty Page" on it!).
you mean it looks something like so? http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=8218&action=view this was reported in the kde bugs database here: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92909 The bug reporter found success by deinstalling/reinstalling kdepim. I can't say for certain that will work. Before you try that, i would try kill all instances of korganizer (logging out of kde may be best too, as i think it used load a korganizer instance in the background), backing-up korganizer's config file then start korganizer. $ cp ~/.kde/share/config/korganizerrc ~/.kde/share/config/korganizerrc.back $ korganizer
Since I'd rather not be without my calendar for long, does anyone have any recommendations for a replacement program that can read the files made by KOrganizer? I gather that it uses a standard file format called "vcalendar".
the files created by korganizer are a vcalender format, probably version 2, a standard calendar format. I believe almost all calendar programs can read those files (located in ~/.kde/share/apps/korganizer/*.ics: Evolution, Mozilla's calendar program, sylpheed, i think even the ipod can read those files, and probably many others. --brad
