Did you have system notifications for new SMSs?
Or did you have the Conversations application running?

Hi Artem, I too am experiencing this bug, although since so few people seem to
be I wonder whether I'm just missing something in settings. When I receive SMS
I get the correct tones/vibrations notifications, but my Conversations widget
stays empty, saying 'No new messages'. In terms of other software I currently
have several apps installed, but the Conversations widget was one of the first
that I installed (only one before it was the cpumem applet) and it has never
shown any messages. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but I get the same
result. Any thoughts on this?

Yes I got new sms'es and as well notifications about those.
I have now turned the widget off, and then activated the widget again, and now
it works. It seems like the first time in use, it didn't respond to new sms'es.

Great. I tried this too (removing the widget from the desktop and then
re-adding it) and for me that has worked as well. I should have tried that
before uninstalling and reinstalling (which didn't work). Hopefully this fix
will work for anyone else with this problem too.

Thanks for your reports, guys!

Removing/adding the widget, and uninstalling/installing has the same effect,
should be no difference.
If removing/adding fixes the problem, than the only possible reason for it I
see would be initialization. I will try to add more error checking and
recovering during the initialization, maybe it will help.

fixed in 1.0.1.
Now the widget will check that eventlogger has a valid db and will try to
recreate eventlogger if the db is NULL. If the db is still invalid after
several attempts, the widget will be unloaded. I hope it will fix the problem.
