![]() ![]() Using Synaptic Package Manager I completely removed Thunderbird, then reinstalled. thunderbird folder to a USB again, deleted the old folder. Doesn't recognise it (obviously no lookup to an address book) but just stays red and have to manually click in the next field - won't tab away from the To field. When I type in a valid email address in the To field and press enter - nothing happens. It gives no error, just does nothing when I click the Send button. ![]() I can also not send emails from any account. However, My address book had disappeared - nothing in it even though the abook.mab was copied across. I can download new emails for all accounts, no errors. Opened Thunderbird for the first time and all my accounts and existing emails (POP) were there. So I used sudo chown -R david:david /home/david/ to claim ownership and all seemed well. However, something screwy with permissions on my home folder - all as root. I could boot into the new installation - hurrah. While in LiveCD I attached a USN HDD and copied my home directory to it, bit the bullet and reinstalled Xubuntu 20.04 LTS plus updates etc. I downloaded and burned Boot-Repair-Disk and booted from that - no change when I tried to boot from the Grub. Tried to use the LiveCD, downloaded Boot-repair but it wouldn't run as it said needed access to a repository. Win10 has just required an update - and it destroyed the booting - couldn't access Xubuntu from GRUB - gave me a Kernel Panic after saying "Invalid ELF Header". Had been getting along nicely, dual booting. I only installed Win10 as I needed to use ZOOM for playing music - the linux client does not offer the same features as the Win client (as usual). I have a dual boot system Xubuntu and Win10. ![]()
