Re: [Sheflug] star open office

[Craig Andrews <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Having played with it for a bit I find I can't get SO6 to do a network
install, even thought the install guide says you can. I get the same
'repair file' message you do.

It is most likely a disabled feature to stop people using it for more than
testing and evaluation. It is beta, after all, and closed source.

How do you find the speed of OpenOffice compares to SO5.2/6, BTW. I'm
wondering if the >1min load times are normal :-\
