  • You can use Evolution to set it up and then use gnome-calender to use it (I set it up this way for my radical server). I think, what they will do is, integrating the cal/carddav-setup in to GOA so that you don’t have to interact with Evolution anymore.

    The “backend” is currently managed by evolution-data-server. Maybe they will replace it some day, too.





  • I never used a spin-off of a unique distribution of GNU/Linux on my own computer, except the dark Ubuntu times. It seemed right at the time.

    Now, I don’t see why I should recommend a distro that tries to be easier on new users when the original has sane defaults and is closer to upstream regarding all the tools and software bundled with it.

    Here are my recommendations for new users in that order (regardless of their computer knowledge): Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Arch, Slackware, LFS. Friends can help with the installation and should consider easy maintainability when dealing with users who just want to use it.

    My personal preferences are Gentoo and Debian.
