==Posted from the Nabble Web Interface==

Yogi,

So reading into it, your Synology DS109 should be a Linux 2.6. based kernel.
Your Windows "shares" are coming to you from the NAS as SMB/CIFS from a
Samba 3.2.x package under Linux.

So you are going to be subject to some of the file locking issues mentioned.

It looks like there have been a number of upgrades to the NAS's OS and
firmware, I'd go ahead and login to it and perform the upgrade to the latest
OS release Disk Station Manager 3.2 (
http://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=41034 ).

Synology's Linux OS implementation provides a command line interface. The
configuration files for the SAMBA service can be directly edited (
http://forum.synology.com/wiki/index.php/How_to_add_additional_directories )
to accomodate account permissions and file/record locking needed to make
content of the SMB/CIFS shares fully editible from Windows 7.

In addition to the Synology provided OS updates, there is a robust community
of "modders" that actively integrate FOSS packages into the Synology Disk
Station Manager NAS environment.

Suggest you'll do well to do some reading in the Synology forums. You might
be interested in the iSCSI support as an alternative to SMB/CIFS.

Regards,

Stuart

Not sure, who do you mean by "you". Why not yourself? We are all

Re: [libreoffice-users] Summary of bugs

2011-10-24 Thread v_2e

  Hello!
  Is it possible to see not only the total numbers of bugs on
categories, but also the "progress" in time? It is also interesting to
see the number of fixed (and not fixed) bugs on each new LO version.
Can I find such information?

  Thanks.
Vladimir

This has nothing to do with the TDFs policy. This was an Ubuntu bug
and a fix has already been committed to the distribution. See:

Details of false positive [I assume] virus detection by up to date Microsoft
Security Essentials.
Win 86 install of 3.4.3 on Windows 7.
Not sure if  you will notify Microsoft so they can fix definitions or change
LibreOffice to avoid false positive.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Attach files to records in Base

2011-10-24 Thread MsBriscow

Thanks for the links. I looked at them and suspect that what I'm trying 
to do will be too much for the database. It would be nice to create 
clickable links to the files I'd like to attach, but I think that's 
beyond my skills at present and I really don't have the time to learn. 
Sigh.

You gave me some good food for thought, though.

[libreoffice-users] Slide with moderately complicated picture stops Impress dead in its tracks

2011-10-24 Thread Peter Langfelder

Hello,

this is a re-hash of a problem I saw a year or two ago. Any detailed
figure saved in windows metafile format and included in Impress
(haven't tried other programs) makes Impress grind to a halt. I
observed this with OpenOffice 3.3.x and now also with LibreOffice
3.4.3. Running top in terminal shows continuous high usage (90+%) of
CPU by Xorg. My machine is kind of old but still quite capable (Core
Duo at 3GHz or so, 4GB RAM). I tried unchecking font antialiasing and
hardware acceleration in Tools->Options, to no avail.

An example is posted at
www.genetics.ucla.edu/labs/horvath/CoexpressionNetwork/tmp/ProblemSlide.ppt
(not the prettiest, but that's what my collaborators sent me). I'm
curious if anyone can make Impress display the slide in editing mode
in anything approaching real time - I'd be very interested in hearing
of any success stories. I killed Impress after 10 minutes twice, and
once I had to kill the X server because the entire desktop became
unresponsive.

Interestingly, the slide opens without any difficulties in OpenOffice
2.4.1 and OpenOffice 3.0.0.

If no one is able to open and work with the slide, I am happy to
submit another bug report, although the response to the one I filed
with OpenOffice was "we don't have a fix and won't have one in the
future either".

Thanks,

Peter

RE: [libreoffice-users] Re: Documents Not Opening On External Drive

2011-10-24 Thread V Stuart Foote

Fellows, 

I think you're mixing apples and oranges.  Yogi's problem has nothing to
do with his DHCP service and is unlikely to be a router issue.

SMB (Server Message Block) and CIFS (Common Internet Files System) are
the same Microsoft controlled specifications. 

As a practical matter affecting LibreOffice use, what is variable is the
OS hosting and the implementation of the network file system resource.
CIFS is the native Windows flavor (slight differences each release from
Windows NT to Windows Server 2008 R2) while SAMBA is the reverse
engineered FOSS implementation of SMB/CIFS (again differences with each
implementation of Server or NAS operating system).

The question earlier and examples of problems Alex referenced were
mostly related to file locking issues on SAMBA implementations (on
multiple *nix flavors). I think there was an NFS locking issue as well.
Several referenced running the SAMBA instance with the -NORBL flag (No
Record Blocking) as a work around.

So the question to be answered by Yogi might be: what is the OS base of
your NAS--Windows (native CIFS and few issues) or a *nix hosted SAMBA?
And, what release for the service/daemon? Also, for the problem data, is
the partition mount set read/write in the related share configuration or
smb.conf and how is the lock mechanism handled.  Providing those details
and perhaps other about the NAS server, coupled with details on the
client experiencing access or stability issues would be more likely to
provide useful response and dialog.

Regards,

Stuart
