Hi,

link (http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-thunderbird-24-0-beta-2-on-linux-systems/)




$ wget -c ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/24.0b2/linux-i686/en-US/thunderbird-24.0b2.tar.bz2

$ tar -xJvf thunderbird-24.0b2.tar.bz2

$ cd thunderbird

$ sudo chmod +x run-mozilla.sh

$ ./run-mozilla.sh


*******************

Both 'tar' and '.sh' NON-functional!

Q: Is there a patch?

Regards,

Hi luther,

you could try the following commands.


mkdir -p /home/knoppix/Downloads
wget -O /home/knoppix/Downloads/thunderbird-24.2.0.tar.bz2 http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/24.2.0/linux-i686/en-US/thunderbird-24.2.0.tar.bz2
tar xjvf /home/knoppix/Downloads/thunderbird-24.2.0.tar.bz2 -C /home/knoppix
/home/knoppix/thunderbird/thunderbird

I hope that helps.
