    I use it at work everyday (I think most common function have been used), quite stable as I even use it together with Sametime.

    If you use it with Sametime, you need to disable the telephony as IBM recommended because it is not compatible with the sound driver yet in Ubuntu (Simply rename those plugin files in name telephony).

    Hello,
    When he says: "Extract the following files and save into /opt/ibm/lotus/notes" What does he mean with "extract" I've download libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0_2.22.0-0ubuntu1_i386.deb and libgtk2.0-0_2.22.0-0ubuntu1_i386.deb, but I don't know what Calvin means with he says: "extract", someone can help me?

    everything works here, except for the JPG attachment, they won't open (all the other attachments, I can open).

    any suggestion? Can you open JPG attachment?

    thanks, regards
