Thunderbird in Ubuntu Edgy Eft has issues - for me
Something had to go wrong. I was rocking away with Ubuntu (with VMWare server installe dto run XP for the odd bit of Photoshoppery and the like) when Thunderbird decides it doesnt want to work anymore.
The symptoms - I launch Thunderbird. It thinks for a second and then closes.
I can't find a way to make it create a log of what is going on so I'm totally fux0red now - unless I can find a Thunderbird like alternative toi Thunderbird.
Back to windows for the time-being as I dont have the time to feck around getting Thunderbird back up and running.
Very pissed off!
UPDATE: I have since discovered that this is a known bug and that Thunderbird does not run in Ubuntu Edgy - shite!
UPDATE 2 : Apparently running Thunderbird as root solves the issue, and did, for a short while at least. It fecked up again for me and I havent the time to sort it out until I get my new laptop, so...
