Hi all Nope don't have two step verification which Lighted doesn't support. Its already filed as a Launched bug. I don't know how to compile from source but would be willing to try if complete steps are given for both Geary and Lightread. Thanks for the help Leon G.

I have tried to drag icons off the Launcher and on again to higher positions without any success in 12.04 I think it would be great if the Launcher showed active icons at the top followed by any others that have been locked onto it. Then we could see the one we want to switch to and do a simple click on it. No scrolling nor Alt Tab switching needed. Maybe your loco could suggest such a change? Thanks for your ongoing assistance to us all. Blessings.

So I'll try to set it up with my Gmail and report any issues. Result: Geary is running great, on first run I entered my gmail account name and password, it works without any further settings. The details: I see it uses vala, a new language similar to C#. I'm running on Wheezy repos, my repo version is only 0.16. Geary requires 0.18. Oops. So off I go to build vala, after a somewhat battle resolving leftover dependencies from the older version, I got it installed OK. -- seems like the latest git repo has a chicken-and-egg issue where it requires >= vala-0.17 to build itself. Heh. The tarball source does not suffer this. @Johan, a quick find located where geary stores the acccount db stuffs: ~$ find . -iname "geary" ./.local/share/geary Also it stores the account login in the gnome keyring :) Thanks for pointing this out, the gmail web UI was making me bonkers and I dreaded setting up offlineimap (again) to use with mutt ;] -- Wesley On Tue, Jan 15, 2013 at 8:38 PM, Johan Mynhardt <<a href="mailto:johanmynhardt@gmail.com">johanmynhardt@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > > > On Tue, Jan 15, 2013 at 8:29 , Johan Mynhardt <<a href="mailto:johanmynhardt@gmail.com">johanmynhardt@gmail.com</a>> > wrote: > > > > On Mon, Jan 14, 2013 at 10:38 , Leon Gert Marincowitz > <<a href="mailto:lmarincowitz@gmail.com">lmarincowitz@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > > Hi All > > Since updating to Quantal I've had problems with two programmes.
