it does not put carecteres as: á à ã â ä.
these are used characters in the Portuguese language.

      Hi Daniele.

      I just did the following, as root:
      # apt-get remove openoffice.org
      # tar -zxvf OOo_1.1.3-kde_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz
      # cd OOo_1.1.3-kde_LinuxIntel_install
      # ./install

      and then, as a common user:
      $ /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.3/setup

      To open the writer (for instance):
      $ /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.3/program/swriter

      Are you using Debian woody (stable)?

        I'm using sarge (testing) , that is to be upgraded ... i sw some packages are considered stable...

        I've tryied several different installations .. also just installing it as common user, to use it for ex i run ./soffice, i saw the splash and than as i tryed to run an app (swriter) or whatever... it crashed.

        I'll install it again and i'll report the konqueor's error exactly

          OOo chashes for me when I run ./soffice too.
          But it works if I run swriter, for example.

          What occurs if you start swriter this way?
          $ /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.3/program/swriter

            Weel i found the reason.... it crashed if i used swriter or ./swriter, i could run soffice and ./soffice but when i chosed new file opening draw, swriter impress and so on ... then it crashed.... i thought it was becouse of the windows style , and kcontrol --- windows style --- changeg in "keramic" --- and it worked . the style i used was

            "kwin-style-baghira_0.5h-1sarge_i386.deb"

            under kde 3.2.

            Now i'm using a different baghira style (0.5.2) and it works perfectly.

            i was thinking It would be nice if in the next release of kde-openoffice was integrated the "top mac style menu" ...

            And what about icons.... but this is another story....

            thanks marcelo it was a good stimulus to know someone was using this OOo under debian.

              Baghira is also responsible for several other filed application crash reports at bugs.kde.org. Better don't use it.

Re: bug ? (IMPORTANT, PLEASE FIX THIS)

Yes, I noticed that too. Looks like when passing non english character file names from KFileDialog (?) on to OOo to actually open the file the name gets mangled due to some charset incompatibillity and an error message is produced.

If I try to open a file named "file_with_ö.sxw" in my home dir I get an OOo error dialog saying:

"Error loading document file:///home/bjorn/file_with_%F6.sxw: /home/bjorn/file_with_%F6.sxw does not exist."

Hope this helps the one who will solve this for all us non english users.. I'm to lazy/stupid/lazy and lazy.. ;)

Sayonnara!

    Giuseppe said to me :

    There is a bug report for this in qa.mandriva.com, and sound a problem in the kde filepicker, but the same happens into 2.0.1-1mdk but I don't have a patch (and the same bug seems persisting even in latest milestone m156).

    Note that you can change the dialog box either from env var:

    export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=kde

    or

    export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome

    before running ooffice2.0, either from menu Tools/Option/General => Use OpenOffice.org dialogs.
