The Component Chooser module resides in <KDE install dir>/lib/kde3/kcm_componentchooser.la <KDE install dir>/lib/kde3/kcm_componentchooser.so Here this is: /opt/kde3/lib/kde3/kcm_componentchooser.{la,so} Do you have such files on your system? Are there the other kcm_* modules in this directory? Try to see which package provides this file. This should be kde/kcontrol, but... Another forum post I found stated that "Component Chooser" is named "Default Components" in Kubuntu, but you don't seem to have that either... Also you might want to see this thread: http://www.mepis.org/node/11792 Maybe you should ask this question in an (K)Ubuntu specific forum? As far as I know, installing KDE on Ubuntu makes it automatically Kubuntu, so it doesn't really matter that the original installation is Ubuntu. (Same packages, same repositories?) A universal workaround would be to write a wrapper script that would launch thunderbird instead of kmail each time kmail is started. Rename the original kmail binary to kmail.orig and create: kmail: #!/bin/bash /path/to/thunderbird "$@" However, since generally thunderbird and kmail would have different command line parameters (probably) you'll need to do some processing of those. I don't recommend that you use this method, unless you feel familiar with shell scripting. -- Blade hails you... I know my dreams are made of you Of you and only for you --Nightwish
