Pdf Viewer and Spread Sheet for FSO Milestone 2

2008-09-02 Thread Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas
Hi all,

I'm using FSO Milestone 2 and is the most beautiful and quick image of 
the three (ASU/Gtk/FSO) I have probed. The dialer is the only 
application with problems in responsiveness (almost 5 seconds to launch 
compared to the almost instantaneous of the other ones) and the first 
digit of the phone number only is seen when you type the second one, but 
I think that this will be corrected in another milestone. So, keep the 
good work :-)

I want to use my Freerunner for my classes and for that I need, for the 
moment, a pdf reader and an spread sheet. Do you have any advice or 
suggestion of something already packaged? I have being thinking in SIAG 
(Scheme In A Grid) for the spread sheet and now I'm trying to get it 
working on my desktop to see if makes sense to put it also in FR.

Cheers,

Offray

If you install Debian, it comes with FSO (and pretty much looks the same
out of the box), but you have access to all of debian's packages.  From
there you could install either xpdf of evince

sudo apt-get install evince
sudo apt-get install xpdf

I'm not sure how well openoffice, that beast, would be able to run on
the openmoko.  Gnumeric is a bit more lightweight than open office,
iirc.  You could try that.

Hope that helps!

Thanks. I will try epdfview from the bearstech repository and Siag which 
seems even lighter than Gnumeric and I will share the results. Debian 
will wait for a while because I'm trying to keep things as minimal as 
possible.
