[opensuse] Thunderbird patch caused it to stop working
I'm running OpenSUSE 11.3 and the system issued a security patch for both Firefox and Thunderbird. As a result, Firefox works fine but Thunderbird will no start. From the command line nothing happens, not even any error messages. Using the menu all I get is the bouncing icon and then nothing. Has anyone else installed the security patches today (3/11/11) and noted any problems. I'm currently using kmail which is ok but I don't have access to the mail archive or collected addresses. Thanks for any help Terry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
