From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

[Gnome Calendar Flatpak + Evolution seems to do this fine] /usr/libexec/evolution-data-server/evolution-alarm-notify seemed to be notifying me of tasks. Thank you for all the help.

Some relevant command which might have helped me get the alarm notification thing working

I need Calendar but EVERY app I have tried so far doesn't support background notifications or don't run on my system. I want one good app, flatpak or not which can

Notify me of tasks, to do lists etc
Give me notifications for the mails I receive.

I don't know why, even evolution won't do this for me.

Thank you for your help! I installed flatpak Gnome Calendar after using 1 GB of internet bandwidth but no luck
