I don't remember which files were moved to which. You might try a test user and create from scratch just to see where the files are created. Then copy your backup files to the appropriate dir. Hope that helps (and yes I went through this with some testing and didn't seem to restore evolution like it used to due to the dir change). -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Best lil town on Earth!" -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
