yesterday I updated Thunderbird3 beta 3 to beta 4 from yum. Then it doesn't seem to work well. Running Thunderbird, after some seconds, it gets freezing...
Is there anybody same with me? under 2.6.30.8-64.fc11.i686.PAE
Since I had to fresh install F15, I was thinking about using the new Thunderbird beta. This is the command plus the error I receive.
Code:
./thunderbird
./thunderbird-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-glib-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I did a "yum install thunderbird" to get the thunderbird emal program. I got a beta version: thunderbird 3 beta 4.Is Fedora so bleeding edge that this should have happened? I have not changed the repositories that the installation of FC11 uses.(I haven't used 3 beta 4 enough to have any complaints about how it works.)

Apparently something is fishy with my mic input. I tried alsamixer and everything is in unmute. My alsa version is 1.0.23. The only think she hears is a loud hissing noise which is normally my bat voice but she doesnt need to know that. I can record my voice in the sound recorder but nothing comes out in Skype!
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo here's the schedule for 10.04:
April 8th, 2010 - Beta 2 release;
April 22nd, 2010 - Release Candidate;
April 29th, 2010 - Final release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
If I have 10.04 beta 1, could I just continue to update and not have to burn another disk to install? Or do I have to burn the beta 2 and reinstall if I want it?
My update manager still says "updated 3 days ago" and no updates have come through today. Does anyone know if NBR has been automatically updated TODAY from Beta 1?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOriginally I had Ubuntu running on my machine. I installed windows beta 7 with a working dual boot. Get everything working in grub again. I decided to give Fedora a try and wiped my Ubuntu partition and installed Fedora. Everythings all good...except the reconfiguration of grub has left out my Windows 7 partition (nothing out of the norm) I tried manually adding windows 7 to /boot/grub/menu.lst but it's not working, when I try to boot into Windows 7 i get a little flashing "_" for a really long time and nothing happens.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe Avant Window Navigator beta, as taken from the project's Bazaar repository, isn't configuring correctly on my machine and gave me loads of errors previous to this point, so I've had my hands full for a while now. Three packages that AWN needs to compile (gnome-desktop-devel, gnome-vfs-devel and libgnome-devel) are refusing to install, leaving me with this Quote: checking for AWN... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.8.0 gthread-2.0 gobject-2.0 gtk+-2.0 gdk-2.0 >= 2.10 dbus-glib-1 gnome-desktop-2.0 libgnome-2.0 gnome-vfs-module-2.0 gconf-2.0) were not met: No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found No package 'libgnome-2.0' found No package 'gnome-vfs-module-2.0' found.
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables AWN_CFLAGS and AWN_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. and this is why they won't install Quote:hal = 0.5.13-9.fc12 is needed by package hal-devel-0.5.13-9.fc12.x86_64 (fedora) I need an old version of HAL for the "dependency resolution failed" notices to go away. One which PackageKit says is still on my computer. I would try to downgrade via yum but setenforce 0 fails. What do I need to do to get this whole thing finished?
There was very nice wallpaper in Fedora 12 beta with mosaic, how it can be found? (I need a high res version 1920-1200).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI had a portable apps version of Thunderbird (windows) that runs off a thumb drive and wanted to take the settings and transfer them to my Thunderbird that's on my Linux computer.
This is what I did:
First, I installed thunderbird on my Ubuntu 10.04 Linux box and opened it, and closed it (so that it would create the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder in the user account).
Then, I renamed the linux /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder to .thunderbird_ORIGINAL
Then, I created a new /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder
Then, I took the windows e:ThunderbirdPortableDataprofile folder and copied it to the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder.
Then, I looked into the /home/<username>/.thunderbird_ORIGINAL folder and wrote down the name of the folder with the ".default" extension.
Then, I renamed the profile folder (that came from the windows e:ThunderbirdPortableData folder) "<name-I-wrote-down>.default".
And then, I copied the profiles.ini folder from /home/<username>/.thunderbird_ORIGINAL to the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder.
I opened up Thunderbird in Linux and everything seems fine! (I'll definitely be keeping a backup just in case)
My question is: is this fine and dandy, or a recipe for disaster?
I am using F15 beta 1.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThanks to Lucid not working properly on i845, i855 and other 8xx chips, had to re-install Karmic on my mum's computer.I saved all the data from her old install and I ve managed to get all her old emails from thunderbird, but I cant import her address book.In Thunderbird/tools/import/addressbooks it only allows importing of LDIF, .tab, .csv and .txt files, but I cant find any of these files in any of the Thunderbird, .Thunderbird, Mozilla-Thunderbird or Mozilla folders in Home folder or anywhere, all I can find is "abook.mab" which IS supposed to be her address book, but when I try and import it the entries are blank and/or indecipherable (prob cos not a compatible file type).
Its one of those "simple" things to do, thats taken hours and hours of time, but that I cant actually find out how to do.
I am having trouble installing upgrades to Fedora 14. The process stops and I get the following message:"The GPG keys listed for the "RPM Fusion for Fedora 14 - Nonfree - Updates" repository are already installed but they are not correct for this package.Check that the correct key URLs are configured for this repository."
View 5 Replies View RelatedI switched a while ago from Gnucash to Homebank. The current version of Homebank is 4.04, but there is a new 4.1 Beta which provides several very welcomed new features. Since there appears it will take some time for the official Fedora repo to provide version 4.1 (I checked Koji already), I was wondering if anybody around here already made an rpm that would kindly share. I even tried the tar package provided by Homebank's website but wasn't successful installing it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded the Windows 7 Public Beta 64-bit. I am running Fedora 10 64-bit with VirtualBox 64-bit version.
When I try to install Win7 from the .iso, I get an error that says: "Attempting to load a 64-bit application, however this CPU is not compatible with 64-bit mode."
This is bogus because VT-x is enabled in VirtualBox for this vm.
Has anyone installed 64-bit Vista (and/or the Win7 beta) with VirtualBox successfully?

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy installation of F10KDE keeps freezing up.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSome do. Most don't. (For example FoF launches gives a black screen and freezes Fedora hard-reset needed) I tried a heap of games from the repos. Most of them freeze I wouldn't know where to start to solve the problem.. Also most N64 Emulators don't work so no games or anything is REALLY boring...
I've recently installed Fedora 12, and it constantly freezes. The only common aspect between the freezes is that the freezes occurred when firefox was running. When it does freeze, I'm not able to use ctrl+alt+f[1...6] or even ctrl+alt+backspace.

Google provides many references going back to April for this string, mostly on Ubuntu related sites. I do have an 128 MB ATI Radeon X300 graphics card but it is over four years old, and I didn't have this problem with earlier versions of Fedora. Also, the google references seem to refer to hibernation, which I am not doing, at least not intentionally. Finally, I see that Xorg configuration has changed significantly since I last checked. (I can't find xorg.conf.) Can anyone refer me to a relatively succinct description of how it now works?
