I'm new to posting on linux forums, but not new to support. I'm a recovering windaholic, and I felt I had something to contribute to this discussion... you can be the judge of it.

I'm on Linux 3.2.2-1.fc16.i686.PAE, I realize this is a Ubuntu forum; that's on my other partition.

Was Gnome 3, installed KDE for productivity reasons. KDE SC V 4.7.4

I get this same error, but it has only cropped up in the last 2 days. I have avoided doing any updates for the last 2 week as I want to avoid any potential problems with a kernal module update.

I believe more than one instance of Ktimetracker is running, or more than one Ktimetracker app is trying to write to the .ics file while it's locked by another.

How i came to this conclusion? which might not be right because it does not show up in PS or TOP. I run Jovie text-to-speech and have set my clock to speak the time every 20 mins. At the same time the Ktimetracker file problem came up, my desktop speaks the time twice in a row now, and gives me the Ktimetracker.ics file error, disk full?... I got the Ktimetracker error first, rebooted, noticed the time was not being spoken. Found the speak time reset to 0, set the speak time to 20 mins, and now it speaks it twice with the .ics file error.

One possibly related config might be that I run Evolution for mail, calendar and tasks. I might have read somewhere that KDE and Evolution have some open issue right now.
