anything, just have the thunderbird profile setup to point to the shared partition - works great for Thunderbird! So I am not actually changing anything, the data is in a fixed location, but there appears to be something about Lightning that doesn't like the "non-default" location... Would be great if I could get it to work.... :-(
John.
try using a link in stead ?
Yep, have tried using a link - no joy. John
With a bit :-) of assistance from the bugzilla crowd, this has been resolved! The problem was that the fat32 partition was not being mounted with the "exec" option. After doing this, all is working great! Would highly recomment anyone who is looking at an email/calendar solution to check out Thunderbird/Lightning combo.

May I ask, are you on x86-64 and/or did you compile the source yourself? I haven't been able to find a 64-bit binary of Lightning, and can't get the source to compile yet. thanks, --Jason -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yep, am using 10.3 64bit, and have tried lots of .xpis, they all seemed to work, except for the prob I was having.... Will check when I get home exactly what versions of Thunderbird/Lightning I am running.

thanks, --Jason Hi Jason, just checked and I was actually running Thunderbird2.0.0.6-5.3@i586. Have now uninstalled and installed 2.0.0.6-23.1@x86_64. Initially lightning didn't work, but uninstalled

Huh, that's odd...I was on 2.0.0.6-something and now I've just upgraded to 2.0.0.9 from the Mozilla build service, and with both versions lightning-0.7-tb-linux.xpi says "Lighting could not be installed because it is not compatible with your Thunderbird build type (Linux_x86_64-gcc3)".

The arch listed on their site for Linux is x86, so I think you are correct.

Aha! The sources pointed to when I clicked "build lightning" did not work, but upon clicking "other systems" from the download page, I found different sources which (after about 15 solid minutes) built succesfully!

Did you click on the install button from the website or did you save the link in your machine and installed from Thunderbird? Remember that installing from Thunder is different than installing from Firefox, in Thunderbird you must first save the link and later install it from add ons tool within Thunderbird... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
