Hi On my netbook, Thunderbird seems really unstable, it stars up fine then seems to stall and fails to respond, it eventually picks up. I usually goto a terminal and type killall thunderbird.
I can usually also minimise thunderbird, but maximising it, ends up with the top of the application bar only and the rest of the application is not maximised properly. Is there a program that I can run to try and figure out what it is doing ? I am sure there is but not sure what I would be looking for even with searching. In a similar way to using time, which tells how long a program has run for, I guess I need some sort of memory or cpu trace to see what Thunderbird is doing to behave this way. Chances are it will be rather incomprehensible, but at least it could be something I can post here, ( well pastebin if huge output ) so others can take a look. In the meantime I have removed my usenet account from the netbook, as i don't use it, on the netbook enough to justify having.
