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.)
View 6 Repliesyesterday 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 installed fedora 12 beta and I wonder if there are updates or patches to this beta version?

However, when it comes to linux I'm about as green as they come. I installed KDE Fedora today and managed to get Firefox and Flash installed without much trouble. However, I'm trying to download the newest version of Thunderbird but after a lot of looking, how to do it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhy is everything with this ubuntu so complex and difficult? This operating system turns the act of installing/uninstalling into a huge task. Just yesterday I installed the beta release of flash 10.1, I thought that it went into my firefox folder, but I checked firefox 3.5.7 plugins and it isn't there. So my question is, where on earth could it have possibly gone? Terminal said that it installed somewhere on my home directory, but I've been searching everywhere and I can't find anything. I know it's there because videos require flash work. where is my home directory, and what is it? I'm using ubuntu 9.10.

The installation as far as I know went fine however when I go to enter my UN and PW the "Sign In" button will not light up.

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 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.

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 beta a couple of days back.This is the first time I am using a beta release.Some programs are crashing, although not frequently.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu official package of the Mozilla Thunderbird, which I think is much better than Evolution as a mail client particularly in its UI usability, is old in version and English only.
If you want to have a localized vesion in different languages, e.g. I am a Japanese, you should go to Mozilla official site to get a tar.bz2 file for Linux.
My question is: an application installed that way becomes an outsider, or a stranger, to the Ubuntu eco-system on user's local system environment. Could we convert it to a legitimate insider, i.e. putting it under the Ubuntu proper package management scheme, via a relatively simple way? If yes, how?
I'm running Xubuntu 10.4 and TB 3.0.6 from the repository, and the damndest thing has happened. Thunderbird was working, and then it stopped sending email -- literally from one email to the next. In fact, I didn't even notice it for three hours.
I never got an error message or a timeout or any of the typical problems; rather, I typed the email, hit send, and then it vanished from the screen. I don't get a progress bar on the bottom or a sent message line, and the message doesn't go into the sent folder. I can receive email, and my Internet connection is working.
I tried all the usual stuff -- checking the settings (which I haven't messed with), deleting each of my accounts and putting them back, looking for rogue extensions (again, I didn't add any between the time it worked and it didn't), and uninstalling, purging, reinstalling, etc. I even ran a virus scan.
But it gets weirder. I installed Evolution, and it works fine. And so does Spicebird, which is basically Thunderbird in prettier clothes. So the problem appears to be with the copy of Thunderbird that I have installed, since I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem.
Any thoughts? If this was Windows, I would assume that the software was corrupted or missing a ddl (or whatever), but I've never seen this happen on a Linux system.
So I installed the latest Thunderbird security update without bothering to check what version it was and found that I had "up"graded from 2 to 3. Despite selecting 'no synchronization' on all my archived Gmail labels it still started downloading many gigabytes of archived email. In Thunderbird 2 I had just the headers of the archive and that suited me fine. So a warning about installing the latest updates without checking and a question: Is there a Thunderbird 2 package for slackware 13.1?

When I try to enable it, it says could not contact fedora and it will be disabled. as to what is different between the two installs?
