[discuss] OpenOffice startup too slow on some users

2006-09-02 Thread benben
Hello everyone! Recently I added a couple of users to my Ubuntu Linux pc and to my surprise, OpenOffice (all OOo applications) takes almost 3 minutes to start on these newly added users. However, if I launch OpenOffice in my own user login, then it only takes 5 to 9 seconds. While OpenOffic

I missed that. There are two tabs on the Mail Reader - "Standard Display" and "Raw Display". The first is bad enough. Why publish any of this information? Surely it is the questions and answers which are relevant. This is the reason I unsubscribed from these lists previously. Someone sug

General note: giving meaningful subjects to email posted to public lists greatly increases the number of people who will actually read it. "Hi, I need you to fix..." is useless, I opened this message by mistake, many other subscribers probably ignored it. Which is bad, because the problem is real a
