Anyone using a PIM ? I need a good contact manager app so I can wipe Windows off my wifes PC- see wants to pay for ACT or something similar?
I say Evolution does not run on Debian :-(

Evolution works fine, it just requires a lot of support debs (21Mb download, 62Mb installed)

If the size doesn't bother you, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure it's set to 'stable'. Then run 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get install evolution'. It'll tell you the 52 packages it wants to install, you hit Y, and it'll install it.

Sounds awfully bloated for DSL :)

Anything small and fast just to keep adresses and phone numbers with a quick find?

Sort of quick card index.

I agree hasty- but I can't find anything close to use- Del her is my apt source.list
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib non-free
#deb http://www.modularity.org/knoppix ./
#deb http://marillat.free.fr/ testing main

What do I need to change to have synaptic satisfy dependcies to install Evolution?
Looks of error on libgykhtml dependecies- and several others- I thought apt would solve these?

Try Blackbook. There are *.deb packages for it, and it is probably apt-gettable.

The package size in the Debian pool is listed at 74KB.

Good Luck.
