About

KAlarm is a calendar/reminder application for KDE.

This page is a seed article. You can help HTYP water it: make a request to expand a given page and/or donate to help give us more writing-hours!

Bugs

  • When daylight saving time goes into or out of effect, KAlarm does not adjust well; most alarms will be off by one hour, and some alarms seem to completely fail to trigger or show other erratic behavior.
  • KAlarm requires Akonadi. Akonadi can become misconfigured (e.g. during a distribution upgrade) so that it will not run, and this can be very difficult to fix. (It's not at all clear why KAlarm requires Akonadi, either.)
