Sorry meant for this to go to the users group: Please be aware that many add-ons may not work w/2.1x. On linux (not tested on Windows): xsidebar requires: http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/installation.html#unstable http://downloads.mozdev.org/xsidebar/xsidebar-1.unstable.xpi ChatZilla needs a new install via: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/16/ [thanks Gijs Kruitbosch for fixing] Lightning requires: 1.1a1pre There is of course a side effect; once you've installed the lightning 1.1a1pre you lose the 1.0b1 when you fire SeaMonkey 2.0.5 back up & your old calendars do not work. See: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=1248265 for workarounds. I advise backing up *all* of your mozilla profiles, and if possible use a test profile w/2.1. Prefbar works (as always). As does flash and java. Addons that I've found that do not (with the exeptions noted above that require new versions): Adblock Plus (1.2) SQLite Manager (0.5.15) Moonlight (2.99.0.6) _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
