I mark this thread as solved since my e-mail is working again. Working after a lot of work.

Hi,

I just restored my .thunderbird folder from an external harddisk to my home folder. I started thunderbird and normally it will find my mail, contacts and appointments automatically. Now it...

Hello again,

In the mean time I installed Mint 17 Cinnamon-64bits and there it works like it should work. Thing is I don't like the Cinnamon interface since it is so dull. Everything is grey,...

When you know you will not be using the computer for a longer period of time you can shut it off completely. As you wrote this is the best way to save energy.
But, when you want/have to do something...

Go to the website which is mentioned and copy all the text from the script.

Thank you for still trying to find an answer for my problem. In the mean time I did the following:
I did a clean install of Kubuntu 14.04 and I really mean clean, no config files remained so I had...

Thing is, also in non maximized state the program does not get focus and stays in the background.

Addition to last post: When Chrome is not open when I click a link the program is started and gets focus immediately. Then it all works like it should work.
When it is open already it does not.

Thank you bapoumba. Yes Chrome is my default browser. I did have it on full screen, now it is in window mode but the same happens. When I click a link in an e-mail, I see the name of the website in...

No, it's not a Thunderbird setting. Reason: it's not only happening with TB, but also with other programs. As I wrote I see the text in the Chrome taskbar button change because a new TAB is opened in...

Nobody? Please help me solve this problem.

Hi,

This might not be the right forum to drop this problem but since it is a highly visited one I am hoping to get an answer here.
When I click on a link in, for example, a mail in Thunderbird...

I feel so stupid. All this time the answer to my problem was so easy. Yes, I do have a 1Gb card, a 1Gb switch, a 1Gb modem-router, but I don't seem to have a quality cable between the computer and...

You are probably using the wrong settings for your monitor.
Since you use Kubuntu try this:
Open System Settings > Display and Monitor
In the right hand side window you see three icons at the...

After installing the OS I also used the r8169 driver, but with just 100Mb. After reading several threads on forums I installed the r8168 driver, hoping this would cure my setup, but no way.
I find...

Yes, the rest of the network is 1Gb as I wrote in my original post.
Even virtual machines have 1Gb connection, but the host sticks ate 100Mb.

The info I get here also says 100Mb. So I do think it is really just 100Mb.

Hi tcl2,

Thank you for your help. Unfortunately it didn't help me so much since you lost me in line 1 already.
I guess I need a step by step instruction how to do things or I am lost.

Hi all,

Let me start with wishing you a very happy New Year.

As you can read in the title I am having problems to setup autofs with samba.
I have the following computers:
1) Desktop, running...

I also still use POP3 and love it more than IMAP. I have mails going back to 2008 which I don't want to lose.
In Thunderbird I have an archive folder with subfolders per year, each having an inbox...

People are different. For me it is just the other way around: I started with Gnome 2 and used it till it was abandoned for Gnome 3 which I hate, just as I hate Unity. This afternoon I installed...

A long time ago I also installed 8.10 and a year later 9.10 but as you write they were no good at all. From then on I stayed with the x.04 versions and loved them till 11.04. Then it was time to skip...

Well, later it turned out things did not work like they should and I shouted too soon that the problem was solved.
I continued searching at the Nvidia forum and finally I found what could be the...
