Hello

 

I have just installed Mandriva LE 2005 and found it excellent, however, I am having a problem with OpenOffice 1.4. I has installed, when installing whole system, and there are Icons for it, and it even load once, but since then it has steadfastly refused to load. When I click the icon or go into menu and click the small icon comes up saying it is loading then suddenly disappears and that is it!!!! The time it did load it took a long time. Can anyone help, please?

I only had problems because of my video card. Required OpenGL to be working before it'd be fine.

 

Check /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the lines:

 

Section "DRI"

Mode 0666

EndSection

 

if not there, you can add them.

 

Also, ensure Mesa is installed too.

Hello,

 

I've got similar problem: after installation of LE 2005 I can't load oowriter as normal user:

 

[mes@dhcppc0 ~]$ oowriter

/usr/lib/openoffice/program/javaldx: libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.3' not found(required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)

/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin: libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.3' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)

 

[mes@dhcppc0 ~]$ gcc --version

gcc (GCC) 3.3.4 (Mandrakelinux 10.2 3.3.4-4mdk)

I can load oowriter if i start a session as a root. Also I can load soffice.bin as a normal user.

 

In the directory /usr/lib/openoffice/program/ there is no such library as libgcc_s.so.1 and I tried to copy it from /lib but with no success (empty file is copied).

 

Can anyone help?
