-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have Lycoris and have been using OOo succesfully for a few years (if you count 5.2). Last week, I got the following error and it persists. Here is what I did, what I've checked and what errors I get.
I uninstalled and deleted anything to do with OpenOffice from my system. Using the tarball, I recreated the entire thing with the -net install in /usr/OpcnOffice.org1.0.1. I deleted jre first (in case that was the problem) and now have jre 1.3.0, which is older and not compatible with OOo. I also investigated the problem and can now be more specific. (Please don't suggest I get a compatible jre, as I had it and still had all the problems listed below). 1. Changing default fonts does absolutely nothing (except change the default fonts). 2. In the Help Files, the index portion (left side) is perfect. On the right side (the actual help files), I get Headings, Icons and Hyperlinks. The Hyperlinks show up as underlines (no names or other indication of what they might link to). There is NO text -- none, nada. 3. Everything else works like it used to. 4. No other program is affected by this. 5. The following odd problem occurs from time to time -- always as four of these. SIOCGIFADDR got '00:00:00:00:00:00' SIOCGIFADDR got '00:00:00:00:00:00' SIOCGIFADDR got '00:00:00:00:00:00' SIOCGIFADDR got '00:00:00:00:00:00' I note "ADDR" which I assume refers to an address, and "GIF" which may mean a .gif file, but have no idea what "SIOC" means. Apparently I have a failure in the address of a .gif file. The .gif files are in: /usr/OpenOffice.org1.0.1/share/gallery/rulers and appear okay. 6: I also get the occasional error: kioslave : ###############SEG FAULT############# 7. Keep in mind that I have been running 1.0.1 since it came out with no problems until this past week when my help files decided to become unusable. So far the help offered amounts to: a) did you set your fonts up correctly? -- ans: yes, b) can you change fonts and make it work? -- ans: no, c) how terrible that you had OOo set up under /root -- this will never work -- ans: But it did for nearly a year, still, a change to /usr made no change, and d) do a full reinstall -- ans: okay, still no change and (oh, yeah) e) did you set up user in the right place? -- ans: yes, in {HOMEDIR}/OpenOffice.org1.01, where it's been working fine for the past year. Is there an environment variable that might help? Or, better yet, does anyone know what might cause the errors listed in 5. and 6.? - -- Robert Black Eagle The more I understand, the less I know. Now I understand so much, I'm clueless. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE95+tytjSYKkYJrmcRAlGVAJ4i1YSTQV2EkuKZMWxQhtAy7axTNwCfRKY7 aQcVCnwEBtSq/Akl8ZQTZcc= =8JAe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
