Thanks Philippe,

and install it on 9.1 and let u know.

install of FB 2.1.3.

Suggestions here also wont help.

U know problems in this so u smiled and I took it as
joking suggestion. this would be the last resort I am
not ignoring this option.

Well we dont know their priorities for this and we have
our own schedules.

> or build it yourself

Yes this is the option I am going to try now. Hope community
will help me in this. I have not compiled any package from
sources before to I have to start from scratch. If I am
successful I will let u know.

BTW another option struck me is If anybody actively contributing
to FB who has experience in Compiling FB and has shifted to
KUbuntu 9.10 is in position to spare some time and compile it
and post link here would help persons like me a lot.

Thanks and best regards

Raja.
