[libreoffice-users] Re: LO Impress 3.3.3 crashes Windows and Ubuntu
Just to clarify, the issue I was having did not appear to be an effect of a slowed-down LO, as the entire OS went unresponsive and the first few times it happened, I waited for a lng time to give it a chance to recover. It never did. However, since I cannot reproduce the crashes right now, I can't add anything useful, sorry about that. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/LO-Impress-3-3-3-crashes-Windows-and-Ubuntu-tp3258408p3264089.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

It happens more often that people report crashes or such, and in the end they seem to have disappeared :-) Cheers, -- - Cor - http://nl.libreoffice.org -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LO Impress 3.3.3 crashes Windows and Ubuntu
Hi :) Good point. Also have you tried increasing the size of the memory caches available to LibreOffice? Tools - Options - LibreOffice - Memory However in GnuLinux a single app should be able to grey out or even crash completely without affecting any of the other apps or the rest of the desktop. Usually if you move the mouse arrow outside of the app or switch to another workspace then you should find that everything else is working fine. In platforms that are not unix-based apps and processes are not usually protected from each other. This impacts on stability and security. That is why i thought it best to get a bug-report posted asap so thanks for doing that.

The computer was completely functional and once the backup was done LO worked. One other thing I noticed that could slow down LO is having record changes on (EDIT CHANGES RECORD). It really slowed down find replace when on.

[libreoffice-users] Re: LO Impress 3.3.3 crashes Windows and Ubuntu
Thanks for the helpful ideas. At the moment, I am trying to reproduce the crash while logging events through strace, but still to no avail. From memory, the crash happened mostly with a particular odp file I had to finish, but recently it also happened when I opened someone else's ppt and yesterday just before I sent out my cry for help, it crashed on me just after removing all but one slide from the odp file I used previously and pasting a couple of images, i.e. within 5 minutes of opening it. No crashes since. I'm sure it will crash again when I actually need to get something done urgently. At least you gave me a few hints what I can try to get it to do the job when I need to. I'll report when I encounter another crash.

Hi Tom, Thanks for the quick reply. The bug report is now https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40141 Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the crash using strace. Ironic! I'll just start LO through strace every time and if it doesn't crash, that's fine, too.

Hi :) Nicely done. have you tried using Synaptic Package Manager to Edit - Fix broken packages Also out of curiosity which format do you use for the presentation? Could you try Save As and change to the other one, eg if the presentation is currently a .Ppt try saving as a .Odp I don't know if it's going to be possible to try that and i don't know why i didn't think of it before.
