A couple of issues that have popped up. I'll mention them here and
someone can tell me where to file the bug reports:
In Impress, I'm able to crash it consistently be selecting options in
the initial startup:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Impress (Applications > Office > OpenOffice.org 1.9 Impress)
2. In Step 1, click Next >>
3. In step 2, click Next >>
4. In the speed field, select a different speed.
5. In the speed field, select another different speed.
This last step crashed Impress for me.
Step 4 can be replaced with selecting from a different 'selector' first
(For example, transistion type).
In Base, I can't seem to move beyond the Save File screen.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Base (Applications > Office > OpenOffice.org 1.9 Base)
2. Select 'Create a new database' and click Next
3. Click Finish. This will prompted for a filename to save the database
as.
4. Enter a name in the 'Name' field (or take the default) and click
Save.
The dialog disappears, but Base doesn't do anything. If you click
Finish again it just prompts to save the file again, over and over.
Cancel just closes Base.
Anyone else seeing this, and if so, where should I report this stiff.
I can confirm the base problem. I was using FC3, are you using
development or FC3?
When I tried the rpms that are directly from openoffice.org that are
contained within the .gz file which they provide, base worked half way
decent. I had to install jre, which did not require any additional
environment adjustments, etc.
I believe for Fedora, there is really no place to report the bug. The
list is probably it for now.
