Re: Open Office 3.2 on SLES 11 for s390x
Dear all, After analyzing the requirements more deeply, Open Office would only be needed to convert Microsoft Office documents to PDF. So a sort of "headless" installation would be sufficient. I downloaded the OpenOffice RPMs suggested by Bruce available from OpenOffice.org but I could not manage to install them on SLES 11 as rpmlib(Filedigest) and another component of RPM are at a higher version than expected by the RPM package. Currently I am installing SLES 10 SP2 to see if the RPMS could be installed in that environment. Furthermore I would be very thankful if somebody could point me to a good MS Office / PDF converter that would run on SLES 11 as alternative as I cannot manage to make OpenOffice available.

Re: Open Office 3.2 on SLES 11 for s390x
Dear all, Thank you all for your contributions. I will study that deeper. I think also that the GUI of OO will not be needed. But the software comes from a third party and up to now I didn't had the opportunity to speak with them. I saw their prereq list and there was either Open Office, which seems to me as "maybe possible" and MS Office on Wine which I understood will never work on z/Series since Wine only intercepts Windows API calls but runs still the Intel code of the application. Let's see what can be done. Kind regards, Florian On Mon, Jun 7, 2010 at 8:48 PM, David Boyes wrote: > On 6/7/10 2:40 PM, "Gentry, Stephen" > wrote: > > > I'll add my 2 cents.

If you're just using it for document conversion, you can run it in batch mode, which is dramatically less CPU-intensive, as it doesn't have to initialize all the GUI overhead stuff.

I'll add my 2 cents. Since Open Office is heavy on the Java part and therefore cpu intensive, I wouldn't think it would be a good candidate to run on the z platform. I suppose if you had enough ponies, i.e., mips then it could be usable. I use it here but it's more to show that it will run.

Depending on what you really want to do, it might be possible to find a more suitable program to convert your documents from to ODF format that scripting up OpenOffice. So, I guess the first question is: What format(s) is/are the source documents in? A Google search on that and ODF might find something which is specifically designed to do the conversion. Which might be easier to port that OOo. Personal opinion in the above, of course. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.

I will take a look. We have been running Openoffice and performing simulations for over a week. Seems to actually behave quite well (light CP, IO,MEM).

You would also need something to bring the GUI from your Linux guest to the end user. You certainly don't want the end-user to have a pure X-server on this desk. Even for something like VNC you need to be pretty stubborn to enjoy it. I'd expect a web-based office suite (like Google Docs) with the back-end on s390 would be more competitive. No idea how useful Citrix is these days with modern connectivity. Must be reasonable since many people use that. I used it back then on dial-up connections and found it just workable because you could not get there otherwise (like running Windows office applications on the Linux desktop). Are the Linux solutions comparable with that? Obviously for headless operation like Gerard mentions, these issues don't count.
