Bout the only suggestion I have seen is to increase the space portage uses to compile it. I haven't tried - the partition with my /var/tmp directory has 15Gb free space - surely that is enough...

I compiled the latest version of vanilla OO with no hassles - works fine.

Just wish I could build OO Ximian and actually have it work for once.

Did you just post this 15 times???

Anyway. Here is my openoffice-ximian experience.

1st try: Seg fault...
2nd try: Kernel oops
3rd try, got the binaries from BMG: error in librairies stating that I need glibc 2.3.3 (does that even exist!!!)
4th try: Seg fault

The hell with this crap, Ill just get the original version for petes sake!

I tried with rc1, and 1.1.46.... Im not really impressed right now

Okay, r3 doesn't install the program folder /opt. Can anyone confirm this? Has anyone successfully compiled r3 without any problems? I'm beginning to regret trying to install r3. :-( r2 worked just fine.

As you probably already know, Microsoft just announced "Availability of Open and Royalty-Free License For Office 2003 XML Reference Schemas"

The opinions vary.. Good? Bad? what do you guys think of it?

My thought is that the open source community should ignore the Microsoft reference Schemas, and write their own.

This would prevent Microsoft from getting it's legal hooks into open source filter implementations.

I do not have dev-util/dmake installed so I can only assume it used its own internal dmake.

It just takes it forever to draw any of the windows, like 45-60 seconds still. It is NOT using the cpu, it is just sitting there.

Maybe gtk needs to be rebuilt?!

Thanks for any advice.

Well... I don't know what your problem could be, but why dont you use -ffast-math in your CFLAGS ? It's the flag which gives the most speedups (the other appart from -fomit-frame-pointer don't do much in term of usability speed).

My whole system is built with -ffast-math, nothing broke so far.

I don't think this would solve your problem, but it could help a bit.

Since installing Gentoo about two weeks ago, I have rebuilt a more customised kernel and did an "emerge sync" then rebuilt KDE rather than use the prebuilt version on the Gentoo discs. The only original (read "general purpose") builds I have now are X, Gnome (because I rarely use it) and ... OpenOffice.

I didn't even bother to download the Gentoo build I just used the official OOo binary build I already had from www.openoffice.org web site.

Things is, having read some of the posts above, I timed how long it takes to load OpenOffice after a reboot, and after OO has been run at least once and closed since the last KDE restart. The times are 15 seconds and 5 seconds respsectively.

I have a XP2200+ processor with 512Mb ram.

Since switching to Gentoo, I have notice incredible speed differences thanks to the custom building of critical programs. However, not with OO, or at least the critical factor in this case is not OO itself.

So I hate to put a dampener on everyone trying to custom-build this and tweaking all the flags, if my bogstandard version can load that fast, maybe you're attacking the wrong problem.
Gentoo, PCLOS-pre-81a and Windows 98SE.
Shuttle SN41G2V2
Athlon XP2500+ o/c to 3200+, 2x256Mb Geil Value RAM, FX5200.
Ntlworld cable internet via ethernet
and PC-Chips Desknote Laptop (with PCLOS-pre-81a )

loading oocalc: 11" 1/2 first time, 4" 1/4 second time

I imagine that also hd performance could have an impact

I'm trying out 1.1.46 and I want to use a jdbc driver but can't make it work. Has anyone succeeded?

Looking round, a few things look like they may be relevant. Again, anyone know for sure?

The settings, security enable java checkbox clears itself when closing preferences. Does this mean I can't enable java?

Looking at the ebuild, configure has -disable-java and the user setup has no java. Again does this mean no java?

I would try changing these but at a day to build, I'd rather ask first. :wink:

Anyone else having problems with bullets?
(I'm using openoffice-ximian in portage)

Graphic bullets work, numbered lists, work, and bullets seem to work except they don't output the bullet (they just indent). Anyone have/had this problem or know how I'd go about fixing it?

hey ppl just need a little push in the right direction, how do i know what my "PORTDIR_OVERLAY" is... i don' thave a portage folder in /usr/local/ and i can't even extract it their...
No this ain't no joke at all - the ebuild for openoffice-ximian-1.1.0 is here! Get it while it's hot:

http://www.t0.or.at/~zaurus/openoffice- ... -r3.tar.gz

The usual How-to install:

Just download it and extract to /usr/local/portage (or whereever you set your PORTDIR_OVERLAY to). After that

Code: Select all

emerge openoffice-ximian
and wait for some hours.
let me know if u have the answer.. i need this app badly...

"PORTDIR_OVERLAY" is set in /etc/make.conf
btw you don't need it for ximian openoffice: now it's in portage!!!

I've looked at configure --help and it means exactly what it says on the tin.

I've changed the ebuild to try it out and I'm rebuilding. It'd be done by now but I let my disk fill up so it didn't finish :evil:

Hi,

I just finished 1.1.46 but it was not installed to /opt but there is a complete copy in /var/tmp/portage/oo../image.

I can´t copy the failure message cause my xterm fucked up but the last output was something like a summary from strip.

At first glance it seems to be fully functional has anyone an explanation what happened here ?

Why aren't all languages, that are supported by OOo in the ebuild?

I'm interested in LANGUAGE="50" - slovenian.

Tnx

Does anyone have a binary of the OpenOffice-Ximian-1.1.46 version? Also, I heard somewhere you can change the theme with the Ximianized version...anyone know how?

Thanks,

poorman

BTW, I found a .tbz2 of a openoffice-ximian binary from a gentoo developer, but I think it is a ppc version, cause I can't seem to get it to work. Here's the link:

ximian openoffice unmerges non-ximian OO?

  • Quote

Post by sfabius » Wed Dec 17, 2003 7:51 pm

Do I need to unmerge non-ximian OO (openoffice-bin in my case) before emerging openoffice-ximian? No, I don't want to use openoffice-bin again.
