Calendar for Thunderbird 2?
I upgraded from Thunderbird 1.5 to 2.0 today. (RHEL 5.1 to RHEL 5.2) I used to use the Calendar plug-in, which used to work well with 1.0 and worked okay with 1.5, despite being much maligned. Since it's not compatible with 2.0, though, I got the Lightning plug-in (0.8, then 0.7, then I gave up). Is there a... 19 Jun 2008 01:12

Fedora 9 - how to replace gdm with kdm
It took me some time googling to find out how to do this on F9, so I thought I'd share it - how to configure the system to use kdm as the display manager instead of gdm - in case it saves time for someone else.
