Gnome and Google Calendar

January 16, 2007

Britt Selvitelle writes on how to combine Google Calendar and Ubuntu. His post is based on Bryan Clark’s post on Mashing Google Calendar and GNOME.

Let’s get down to business.

First open up a terminal by going to Applications > Accessories > Terminal (in Ubuntu) or press Alt + F2 and type in terminal. Now that you have a terminal open, let’s get down to viewing your history.

Ubuntu users type:

/usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal $GOOGLE_ICAL_URL

For any other GNOME environment:

/usr/libexec/evolution-webcal $GOOGLE_ICAL_URL

I hope you notice the difference.
