Howdy folks,
I checked again this morning for updates and still no Thunderbird update. I'm in the USA so that is what the default repo is and there are 18 mirrors on the page. I am new to all of this as you know and I am not going to get into downloading software updates the hard way. I am not close to that level yet with command line and in fact I'm still after 6 months still fighting with the printer driver for my Canon laser printer to work on LL, the command line language on the Canon website doesn't work with LL for some weird reason. Thunderbird works on LL for now and as such I will not mess with it since I'm able to use the new version on Windows7. As a newbie to Linux I still don't understand why getting peripherals to work is so difficult, I should be able to download a driver and it should just work like it does with Windows, the new version of Thunderbird mail has been out for months but still not available for LL in the USA. Very frustrating indeed but the pros outweigh the cons with LL that is for sure. Have a great Sunday
