Hi,
I just built RC2 on 6-STABLE with CUPS knob on in the pkg
config system
via portupgrade. No other mods. Build time was about a day,
give or
take-the usual, but no big hairy with ULE scheduler.
No problems. Tests came out good so far. I have one doc that
has a lot
of vector 'speech balloons' over a large raster graphic that
never works
on anything but original Word, but OOo did load and display
it quite
fast and got over half the speech balloons right!
On normal docs it just works. I did get some inversion of
images
inserted as files that were created through Xsane/Gimp, but
I fixed that
through use of the gfx filter. It was probably a format
issue. Internal
scanning dialogue worked fine. None of the docs I ran
through it caused
any failures. I have docs going back - well, at least to the
Word
bundled with Windows 95. That would also be a German version
because I
lived in Germany back then. I also have used other versions
of Word also
up to Mac OS and Word 2003.
Looking good! Thanks for the good work.
BTW, might there be a call for integrating with Gnome menus
and mime
types? I like Gnome because it's easier on my eyes than KDE.
I am
partially blind and eye stress reduction is important. Right
now I do
the configuration via the Gnome menu editor and manual
settings of
icons, targets via the desktop files under ~/.local. I have
no great
understanding of how that's done, but I wouldn't mind
looking at ports
that do such integration and see if I couldn't hack
something together
(e.g. Gimp, Dia, etc.) I think that the menu stuff is
probably going to
be basic and the mime types less so. Don't call me much more
than a
power noob with a rusty CS degree, but maybe I could float
something out
on the list that others could perfect?
Charles
