Thunderbird 3 sucks! It freezes, crashes, shows completely empty messages, won't open links in Firefox, etc, etc. I uninstalled it and got back to TB 2, which is still the "latest" version at getthunderbird.com. So why has TB3 been included in this distro???? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Final Thunderbird 3 package is in the update pipeline or can be installed from OBS:mozilla. I'm using recent versions since quite some time and don't see much instability (actually almost none). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The UI steps: 1. start TB 3 (from /usr/bin/thunderbird) 2. Answer the request for the TB-internal security module password 3. TB crashes The strace listing: ------------------ open("/usr/share/locale/de.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-bundle/de.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/de/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = 3 fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=123193, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 123193, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0x7f27f7dbe000 close(3) = 0 write(2, "/usr/bin/thunderbird: Zeile 130:"..., 81/usr/bin/thunderbird: Zeile 130: 15681 Speicherzugriffsfehler $MOZ_PROGRAM "$@" ) = 81 ------------------ Similar errors from the command at line 130 have been reported on the net earlier, for example: http://www.tuxgalaxy.de/portal/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=39:opensuse-speicherzugriffsfehler-beim-starten-von-thunderbird&catid=22:tipps-und-tricks&Itemid=65 and http://forums.opensuse.org/applications/429617-thunderbird-3-crashes-wit-seg... (I don't think the latter is ldap related) I see this error with the standard TB 3.0b4 _x64 package (as delivered) and also with the latest OBS version 3.0.0-16.1. A ... -safe-mode start doesn't help either so there is no connection to add-ons and themes. BUT: If I install a download package directly from mozilla.com into /opt/thunderbird/ (maybe this one is 32bit?) and start thunderbird with the shell script as provided by mozilla.com, I have NO crashes. I believe the error is related to the startup script, not to TB 3 itself. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I was too fed up by the problems i had with it and am using kmail since 11.3. If i have time left i can try this out, but currently it's lower in priority than my other objectives. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
