I've not had any such issues in Ubuntu 14.04 or 15.04. Perhaps a language pack issue? Do you have a language pack installed? If so, can you please try just running directly and without a language pack? Download the 64bit version here and put into a new _home_ folder (/home/<username>/SeaMonkey) - do not attempt to install or run in /opt or other system folder: https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.35/contrib/seamonkey-2.35.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 extract into that folder: tar jxvf seamonkey-2.*.tar.bz2 and then run SeaMonkey directly from the extracted seamonkey folder: ~/SeaMonkey/seamonkey/ ./seamonkey As long as you do not attempt to update/add any add-ons or plugins, this will not affect your existing 2.33 version. Do not add any language packs, just test in english. See if that makes any difference. Note: I generally only run SeaMonkey from the SeaMonkey builds in my /home folder, but I just tested the Ubuntuzilla build on 14.04: dpkg -l | grep seamonkey ii seamonkey-mozilla-build 2.35-0ubuntu1 amd64 Mozilla Seamonkey, official Mozilla build, packaged for Ubuntu by the Ubuntuzilla project. User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0 SeaMonkey/2.35 Build identifier: 20150825182814 and do not experience the problems you encountered. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
