Hello, I am running Etch on a Dell Precision laptop. I have one openoffice file, say XYZ.odt, which takes a long time to open (maybe 25 minutes). While it is opening, Openoffice is stalled. It is not big. ls-l reports its size as 18,000. I have many much bigger files which open immediately.
I copied the file to SUSE linux that I have on a desktop, and the file opened quickly. I tried changing its name. I tried copying its contents to a new file. I made a copy of the file (using cp). I had some URLs in the file, which I changed to text (removed the blue and underline) I ran fsck on the filesystem on which it resides, and it reported no bad blocks. Any ideas where I look? John
