You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-writer bash: oowriter: command not found So what should I do? I already have OO on my computer-- I do not need to install it. Why won't Writer open with the command you've given? > >If you tell me how to run it from terminal then I'll do so.

Or do I have to request the error message, once the error comes? Thanks, Swarup -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

If you were (are) a power Windows user, you'll know MS-Word has its application named winword. Similarly, openoffice, under Ubuntu can be started at the terminal by typing [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~$ oowriter (Similarly, you can start Impress (presentation), Calc (spreadsheet) using the following commands, oocalc). A better way to find out, what applications you can start from command line, in your office suit, is to type "oo" and then press tabs (once or twice) to list the Office suit's available apps. >If you tell me how to run it from terminal then I'll do so.

I hope, you'll now be able to fire up Oo from the command line. :) -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

And it is very unlikely to be cpu overheating, because it can happen at the very beginning of a session i.e. in the first minute. Which would be before anything would have overheated. And even after it happens, I can go on doing other tasks just fine. It seems to be only the SCIM/OO that crashes.

The time seems irrelevant-- it just happens randomly. Sometimes when I start typing, it happens 4 times in the first 2-3 minutes. Sometimes it doesn't have until 90 minutes into a session. And according to my memory, sometimes it doesn't happen at all. But usually it happens at least once or twice in a two-hour session, or usually more than that. > Can you run OpenOffice from a terminal, and > show us any error messages when the crash happens? I haven't been using terminal lately, and I've forgotten how to run OpenOffice from terminal. Here below are my failed attempts: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ run openoffice.org bash: run: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ openoffice.org bash: openoffice.org: command not found If you tell me how to run it from terminal then I'll do so. Then when the crash happens, I guess an error message will show up automatically in terminal? Or will I have to request for one. > Also, > do a "dmesg" just after the crash, and show us any errors. ok.
