Description louis 2010-01-28 10:17:42 UTC 
I have upgraded my Fedora 11 (with the preupgrade tool) installation where I had been using Sticky Notes, to Fedora 12.  Upon logging in I was told (only once) that Gnome no longer supported Sticky Notes and that I should use Gnote.  I was assured in the docs I read that Gnote automatically imports Sticky Notes on first run.

It did not.

I have deleted the ~/.gnote folder and tried again.  No luck.  I noticed that the folder includes a file: stickynoteimport.ini -- the first run value remains true.

I am running:
kernel-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.x86_64
gnote-0.6.3-1.fc12.x86_64
Gnome is 2.28

Could be related with the bug 605382 ?

@Louis, do you have installed tomboy?
Comment 2 louis 2010-01-28 15:00:52 UTC 
Hi

[root@lvd-pc louis]# rpm -qa | grep tomboy
[root@lvd-pc louis]# 

Tomboy is not installed.

It does sound the same as bug 605382.

But what is the solution?  Is there an update for Gnote being worked on that will fix this?

Thanks!!

Only for confirm this is the same bug, can you install tomboy and check if gnote import?
Comment 4 louis 2010-01-29 09:46:09 UTC 
Hi

I installed tomboy, and as I opened it and ran it, all my sticky notes were there.

I want to move to Gnote now.  But HOW do I do that?  My tomboy notes are all over the place!
e.g.
/home/louis/.config/tomboy
/home/louis/.local/share/tomboy

How do I convert to Gnote now?  Must I first UNINSTALL tomboy?

Thanks
Louis
