OpenOffice+AMD64
Hello *, does anybody know what is the status of OpenOffice for AMD64 architecture ? Is possible to install OO in some chroot lib32 environment ? Or this cause is wasting the time for now ? Thank you. Vladimir ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Or this cause is wasting the time for now ? Hi. I am not sure the status of it for AMD64, but I do know it requires Java. Unfortunately there is no Java for AMD64 yet. I found this link, but I didn't think Linux binary compatibility was possible in the amd64 version. Every time I try to install a port that requires Java such as Azureus on my FreeBSD/amd64 machine, it says something like Only for i386, and you are running amd64. http://people.freebsd.org/~tjr/linux32.html For an alternative, look at AbiWord for word processing and Gnumeric for spreadsheets. I'm sure there are others as well. -Mark ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I use Abiword and Gnumeric instead of OO now, but there is no connectivity with OO sxw files - which I have a lot (from times when I used i386/Linux). Thank you for that link I will look at it.

I was able to install the linux versions of: Java (jdk-1_5_0_01-linux-i586.bin (from sun's website) OpenOffice OOo_1.1.4_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz (from OO's website) and with linux compat it works on: 5.4-STABLE - AMD Athlon 64 3000 I am watching the port though to see it run native.

Unfortunately there is no Java for AMD64 yet. I had no problems building jdk15 and eclipse on my AMD64 box. I used eclipse for a couple of hours and deleted it after that because it was still too slow for my taste, but it worked fine in my limited testing.
