I saw this advice preciously about stopping junk scan as a way to reduce the cpu use of evolution. I have scanning on and do not have the cpu use problem. The real problem must be somewhere else.
I did a lot of change in Evolution preferences but the problem is still alive. The only significant observation is that when I start Evolution, gdm-binary (which runs forever) begins to eat 10-15% CPU (while Evolution get 80-90%). After I exit Evolution, gdm-binary goes back to near 0% CPU.
What is the connection between Evolution and gdm-binary? It is very strange! I have no idea.
Thank you in advance,

Well gdm-binary is running on my machine, but it does not appear to take too much cpu time in top (can't even see it) nor in ps output.
Has no man page so I don't know what it does. Maybe someone else does.
[]# locate gdm-binary /usr/sbin/gdm-binary []# rpm -qif /usr/sbin/gdm-binary Name : gdm ...
So it's part of GDM, the Gnome Display Manager, a replacement for XDM. Gdm is just a script that starts gdm-binary. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' mailto:tonynelson@georgeanelson.com ' http://www.georgeanelson.com/
