Any recommendations from others on this list about an application that will meet my four criteria? Thanks in anticipation. AGI use GPE Calendar. It runs on my Nokia N800, and seems to have the properties you want. Not sure how it interacts with Gnome or Xfce, thhough. -- hendrikThanks Hendrik This would be for laptop and desktop systems. I have searched through the Debian packages and don't even see where such applications would be listed. Any other ideas/ recommendations? Cheers AGI would consider Iceowl (or possibly Iceowl-Extension, if you use Icedove as a mail client). I'm not certain that it can be made to meet one of your criteria -- that it be consignable to the system notification area -- but I use it for all of the other features you mention. If you need to be able to synchronize calendars with those of other people I understand that the addon called Provider for Google Calendar can handle that function, and I think there are other alternatives as well.Regards, Gilbert
GilbertThanks for this. I was considering Iceowl, but it was the system notification option that swung it in favour of Osmo. Useful to know about the synchronisation option though, and I may well revisit it one day for those pursposes.
Thanks for the suggestion. AG
