Hi everyone, first post and reason for joining the MX forum.
I've been using MX Linux since version 17 and I've even created my own custom MX distro (German Language) for Non-Linux people here in Germany. Day before yesterday I installed MX 19 on a newly formatted partition. Then I moved everything over from another home/user folder of another MX setup. With but one exception everything is working absolutely fine.
THUNDERBIRD LIGHTNING Calendar.
Accounts, Emails, Email Archive, everything else is fine.
Lightning addon was included in my Thunderbird, but can't be found anywhere as far as being able to open and use it. I checked synaptic and lightning showed up as having been installed there as well (even though it's now supposed to be bundled so I'd imagine that a separate lightning installation wouldn't even be required)? So I uninstalled lightning, rebooted the computer, but no change. I then re-installed lightning, rebooted the computer, but still no change. Can't even find any reference to Lightning anywhere in Thunderbird. :(
I know that when Mozilla initially bundled lightning with Thunderbird, most people without the
xul-ext-lightning file installed had the same issue, lightning not showing up as being physically present & usable. So I looked for
xul-ext-lightning in Synaptic, but only found a reference to that file there. Could not install it to see if that would correct the issue. I'd really hate to revert to an earlier version of MX Linux, but Lightning is indispensable to me. There are hundreds of entries for appointments, birthdays, billing cycles, etc. etc. etc. I really really need for Lightnign to work. Any idea on how to have it show up and work for me?
I have an HP 745 G2 Laptop with AMD A8 7150B Quadcore processor, 16GB RAM and a 2TB SATA 3 disk.
