User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.6 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/4.0.269.0 Safari/532.6

When printing a 'List' view, Sunbird (Calendar) displays and prints Events out of sequence. 'Weekly Planner' view previews and prints the sequence as expected, with All Day Events showing at the bottom. This is happening between both Ubuntu (9.10) and Windows (XP).

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Fill a day with Events (seems to be more than 5)
2.Come back later and add an All Day Event and then another non-all day. Overlapped or not.
3.Issue Ctrl+P and examine the List view contents. Sometimes 8AM Events print after Events scheduled at 4PM
Actual Results:  
Sometimes 8AM Events print after Events scheduled at 4PM as well as All Day Events showing up in the middle of the day.

Expected Results:  
Events should display and print in sequence with All Day Events either showing at the bottom or top.

Clients are hooked into a Davical server running under Ubuntu. No errors of note on the server side that I have seen. It doesn't seem to matter if multiple clients add or delete entries or if a single client is doing it.

The order of all-day events is somehow bug 373562. But the sorting of events with times works for me using a pre-release version of Sunbird 1.0.

OK. I have tried the pre-release of Sunbird 1.0 and it won't load the calendar (davical under Ubuntu server side, Sunbird pre 1.0 and Thunderbird 3 with the latest Lightning extension). I thought about a newer version before filing the bug report, apologies for not mentioning I had tried it.

I'll try paring down the cal .ics size and see if it'll load, but I am not too sure if indeed it does work that I want to deploy the pre-release in a production environment.

Will there be no further work on the 0.9 printing system and the list view time sequences?

Thanks for the reply.
Bob

Bob, due to our small team size we usually don't do maintenance releases for past releases. Please try with the latest release 1.0b1 and reopen if this is still the case!
