No issue here. I would suggest to look for specialities in your environment like addons etc. Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I am using 24.6.0 as well without any problems. Have you tried it as a different user with a fresh config (rm -r .thunderbird)? -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Last SM upgrade here resulted in a bunch of crashes after having had none since last year or before. After several days or maybe a week, no more crashing.

No crashes with TB here on 2 different computers - both with the 24.6.0 update. Both with OS 12.3 and KDE 4.10.5 and all patches applied. Gustav -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I'll check next time. I looked, but I can not recognize the failure instant. Wait... It is logged here ~/.thunderbird/Crash Reports/LastCrash, today 14:42. Nothing in /var/log/messages. Nothing in /var/log/mail At 14:41:47 postfix says I was sending an email with Alpine.

Hi,
Since I got the official update to Thunderbird 24.6.0, it has crashed on my 5 times, I think, on two different computers.
Is there a problem? I'm considering reverting to the previous version.
Why don't you switch over the latest available (on a daily basis) of Thunderbird, called Earlybird, (and even Firefox, called Aurora, for that matter) which is currently version 320a2 and is available here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-auro... I cannot even remember when I last used either TB or FF from the oS repos. I install them but never use them. I have always used the above - and the number of times I have had any hassle with either one over the many years can be counted on the 4 fingers of either hand :-) . (Just in case someone gets into a state of confusion about the terms Earlybird and Aurora and the (better known) terms Daily and Nightly, Earlybird/Daily are the alpha 2 and alpha 1, respectively, versions of the daily "snapshots" of TB, while Aurora/Nightly are the equivalents in Firefox. What this means is that Earlybird and Aurora have had at least some of the bugs resolved and reported by users of Daily and Nightly. But I said, for me both are STABLE and have been for years (with minor lapses of course which are normally fixed overnight - very much like what happens with bugs reported about oS O:-) .)

Sounds right. BTW, the best way to use either TB or FF is to unarchive the *.tar.bz files and copy the /thunderbird and the /firefox directory to your /home/<your-name> directory. Then edit the Application setting for the Icon Setting for TB and FF to read "/home/<yourname>/thunderbird/thunderbird" [similar to firefox]. Bear in mind that these will use your current ~/.mozilla and ~/.thunderbird (ie, the current) directories which now store your mail for TB and your bookmarks for FF so it would pay to make a backup of both of these directories - just in case something goes wrong when installing Earlybird and Aurora for the first time. BC PS Just on the chance that at some point either TB or FF does develop a bug then you can switch simply to whatever version of TB or FF you have installed from the oS repos by editing the Icon Setting for each back to what they now read - ie, "thunderbird %u" and "firefox %u". -- Using openSUSE 13.1, KDE 4.13.2 & kernel 3.15.3-1 on a system with- AMD FX 8-core 3.6/4.2GHz processor 16GB PC14900/1866MHz Quad Channel RAM Gigabyte AMD3+ m/board; Gigabyte nVidia GTX660 GPU -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
