Is the reminder daemon (korgac) running? You should see the calendar symbol
with a bell in the system tray. If it's not running, start korgac.

If it is running, have you disabled reminders (RMB menu on the system tray
icon)?

Cheers,
Reinhold

i can see the calendar symbol with a bell in the system tray as you
say, and also
~:$ lsof | grep korgac
tells me korgac is running;
now i started also kalarmd too and if i right click on to the calendar
icon i can see also these options enabled:
1. alarms enabled
2. start alarm client at login

RMB stands for "Right Mouse Button". So Reinhold meant to click on the icon
with the RMB in order to display the KOrganizer menu.

Best regards,


Ender.

Which roberto already did intuitively, and he said the settings are correct...

Are the events saved in the standard calendar (in a local file on disk) or in
a remote file, or on a groupware server?

Are there any alarms at all (i.e. at the wrong time, maybe off by exactly the
time zone shift relative to UTC)?

Cheers,
Reinhold

i am currently using a local file on my pc, called "my_calendar01.ics"
and since i save session when i logout, then it is restored at each
login, and indeed it is correctly restored as i have saved it

i thought about this but there are no alarms at all in the whole 24 hours run...
i also checked the date... but it is correct

may be a solution to reinstall KOrganizer at all?
even if i do not think so
