as of some months ago OpenOffice.org package is available in the
pure64 system, without the need of the chroot.
I've installed it and works fine.

Look for the howto somewhere on alioth or on this list.

Re: More ooo/chroot problems - solved

2005-03-13 Thread Angus Mackenzie
My ia-32 chroot version of openoffice ran but had no fonts in the window

Lucien Saviot suggested I installed ttf-bitstream-vera in the chroot

That plus its dependencies solved the problem; ooo now seems to perform 
perfectly.

More ooo/chroot problems

2005-03-13 Thread Angus Mackenzie
Sorry to have to add to the large number of entries on this subject.

I have pure64 running very smoothly on an Asus K8V-X motherboard with a 3400 
processor. It has been acting as a cups print server for a usb printer for 
the rest of my network.

A couple of days ago I felt the need to try to get openoffice going with the 
chroot process described in the amd64 howto. All seems to be going quite 
well; when I type oowriter in a shell, an oowriter window comes up, complete 
with icons on the toolbars and a default frame. Unfortunately it doesn't 
display any fonts in the frame or windows.

Should I have an XF86Config-4 in the chroot, to set font paths? My limited 
understanding suggested that would be the job of X running outside the 
chroot. I have downloaded and installed only the packages suggested in the 
Howto.

I suppose I could use rdesktop or nx to access openoffice on a 386 machine 
running sarge a metre away, but it would be nice to be migrating to the AMD 
64 machine for most of my desktop work.

I'm sure I should have given more information but I'm not sure what

Suggestions?
