This is also more of an issue with Ubuntu Gutsy, 7.10. So, your case is probably a bug in SCIM. Is it possible to reliably reproduce it, or is it something that happens only after long use. Can you run OpenOffice from a terminal, and show us any error messages when the crash happens? Also, do a "dmesg" just after the crash, and show us any errors.

I use a gnome desktop environment-- the one which comes default with Ubuntu 7.04. If you refer to another GUI theme, please tell me something further so I can understand to what you refer. And please tell me how to revert to the default "Human" theme. Thanks, Swarup -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

I know, it is ridiculous that the interface could affect program functionality, but there is apparently a serious bug there. Could you try reverting to the default "Human" theme, and see if that fixes problems?

[ubuntu-in] OO Writer freezing when write in Devanagari
Hello, I do a lot of typing in Hindi (Devanagari) using OO Writer 2.3. I input characters using SCIM M17N-hi-baraha. I find that, in a typical two-hour typing session, the program will freeze 5-8 times requiring me to close down Writer by force, and reopen it. In addition to the time loss, usually I lose a couple of sentences in this process, and have to retype them. I am running Ubuntu 7.04, and my laptop is 10 GB HD, celeron 433 mhz chip, RAM 288 MB [at 100 mhz]. I have not encountered this problem when writing in English. Have others had any similar problem with freezing while typing in SCIM? If not, then do you think it may be related with my chip and RAM speed? Or is it just a characteristic of typing in Writer/SCIM? Thanks, Swarup -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
