Do you know if the Thunderbird handles multiple profiles? Thanks

terribly helpful. why not hang out on the channel for a few days and get a real impression? Or even help with support? Btw., 100 lurkers isn't an anomaly on an old chan. SO let's see...if 100 of us hung out on the channel for a few days, and did not post, the channel would still be inactive and a v...

Thanks...but I should have waited a few days to post this reply...after all, it's in reference to IRC, where timeliness is not our most important product.

Palemoon started up with no problem. But Thunderbird, Quantum & FF60esr simply wouldn't have it..... at all . In every case, I was getting a warning message, saying:- "Your xxxxxxx (insert relative app here) profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible..." Could you use...

They will not pay attention and react unless you do something almost extreme, like this. Because they are generally water-proof to comments by us common users. I have memories of discussions about the isolation of devs....someone even defended them by telling us(paraphased) the devs developed for t...

What would be very helpful for folks developing web pages would be a way of manipulating the values of foreground and background colors and viewing the result on the screen...it could avoid unfortunate combinations like white/yellow or black/blue [/i]

Oh wow...How about hardware? Would it be OK to have a windows 10 compatible hard drive installed in a linux machine? Or maybe windows 10 compatible RAM?

ok i get what you have said. I know thats how IRC works. I remember when i was using puppy from 431-5xx that the channel was somewhat active with regular users. People would ask for and receive help there. it was a great community. I've had other users tell me it's pretty much inactive. IRC is grea...

The plot thickens with the search in PDF files. Once the folks at the museum used the advanced search in Acrobat, they posed the question: If the pdf files were online, would there be a way to search those files? I can give them all the space they need on one of my servers, but I simply don't have t...

Thanks folks....I'll give some of the suggestions a whirl and let you know which one worked for the museum.

Trying to assist a local museum in searching pdf files. Need a solution to search multiple pdf files for a specific string. Users are not technical, so it would be helpful for the script to look in a specific location, i.e. /mnt/home/newsletter, and search for a string, i.e. 'Howard Huges' in a case...

Nice idea...IF you have unlimited storage space AND unlimited bandwidth

Been using this variant for a while now....works fine on older 32 bit and newer 64 bit desktops/laptops. But I see all sorts of posts about upgrades/additions, etc to the "main" upupbb version. So what gives? Are we expected to settle for a distro that works out of the box that we don't ha...
