Title: Thunderbird and Kathrin?
Post by: clive_2004 on September 23, 2004, 04:58:35 pm

Hi

I have a C860 and would love to use Thunderbird for email. I notice Thunderbird on the feed2 but whenever I try to use the Package manager to install it, it downloads but then fails during install with some message like..

Failed to install, but I have left it behind in case you want to install manually

I wouldnt know how to do a manual install

Is there some way that I an get this package to install please?

Ta

..Clive

i have got it working no problem  -- could you be out of space thunderbird is big - -i had to reflash to an 80 meg partition to install correctly with all my other software -- be sure to go into the nand util on the intall and click on the 64 meg limitation removal or your reflash wont boot

That is interesting!

Where did you get the Thunderbird from? /feed or /feed2 ?
And are you using RC3?

Thanks
