Hi Alfred, Thanks for the info. I will try to give it a spin today. (BTW, b118 should be b108, but I think it is quite obvious.) Since you are with the desktop development team, I was wondering whether we have any liaison who works with OpenSolaris.org? I installed the OOo 3.1-beta2, but could start it. The error message: ld.so.1: soffice.bin: fatal: libicuuc.so.3: open failed: No such file or directory ld.so.1: soffice.bin: fatal: relocation error: file /opt/ooo-dev/basis3.1/program/libvclsi.so: symbol __1cHicu_4_0OLEFontInstanceRgetDynamicClassID6kM_pv_: referenced symbol not found ld.so.1: soffice.bin: fatal: relocation error: file /opt/ooo-dev/basis3.1/program/libtksi.so: symbol __1cDvclJPDFWriterJAnyWidgetG__vtbl_: referenced symbol not found ld.so.1: soffice.bin: fatal: relocation error: file /opt/ooo-dev/basis3.1/program/libsvtsi.so: symbol __1cKVCLXDeviceOcreateGraphics6M_nDcomDsunEstarDunoJReference4n0DDawtJXGraphics____: referenced symbol not found ld.so.1: soffice.bin: fatal: relocation error: file /opt/ooo-dev3/program/../basis-link/program/libsofficeapp.so: symbol __1cDsvtNRoadmapWizardGResize6M_v_: referenced symbol not found ld.so.1: soffice.bin: fatal: relocation error: file /opt/ooo-dev3/program/soffice.bin: symbol soffice_main: referenced symbol not found ./soffice[134]: wait: 710: Killed Thanks. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
