Re: [SOLVED] Shotwell SendTo email on XFCE

Shotwell claims that you can Email photos using 'send to'. However on LM16, I get a message 'Unable to launch Send-to.....' Is it something you have to turn on?

LM 15 under Windows 7

Re: cant seem to get help

Sounds like a memory problem to me. Next time you boot, run the Memory Test and see what you get. Also, do you have the latest version of BIOS for your hardware?
