Public bug reported: Binary package hint: thunderbird
I am unable to "activate" hyperlinks (if activate is the correct word). Clicking on Hyperlinks in my program doesn't open up the link. Whether I'm in an e-mail letter which has a URL or I'm in a list with some hyperlink, pressing on the hyperlink doesn't do a thing. It doesn't even open my browser!The only way I can get the hyperlink to go to a site written is to copy/paste the URL after opening my browser. I tried holding the control key while clicking the hyperlink but got nothing. More info: I'm using gutsy gibon with Firefox as my default browser and Thunderbird as my e-mail program. Both are defined as such in system settings/default applications. As I said it isn't only URL hyperlinks that don't work. For example I have a spreadsheet with contacts. I used to be able to click a particular e-mail address in the spreadsheet and a "write" page would open in Thunderbird. Now - nada! When placing the mouse above any particular address it says the this is a "mailto:"; cell but nothing happens when clicking. The only hyperlinks that are working are those within ANY site on Firefox. Once on the internet all hyperlinks work within my browser.
