Hi
And I thought it was the drink ... :-)
Actually thunderbird doesn't show up anywhere at all on the system
except from my download, so I'm re-installing for the fifth time
because something is clearly wrong.
reinstalling to solve such a trivial problem is the wrong approach.
choose to auto partition your system and then when you have a working
system just download the rpm from any of the mirrors and install it if
yum install thunderbird
doesnt work for you
I take your point but I think the key here is "when I have a working
system". I have not been convinced about that so far. I'll keep
trying, and thank you.
OK problem solved :-) A fresh install and everything showed up as it
should. I downloaded Thunderbird 9 and it installed as it claimed would.
The only quirk now is that even though I reformatted the disk it thinks
my computer is called KnoppMyth and I had to amend the hosts file to
stop it whinging - any ideas about that??
