Go-OO 3.2 sfs
Go-OO 3.2 sfs3 for Puppy 3.01-4.2.xx with 2.6.21.7-2.6.25.16 kernel (and Puppy 4.3.xx with retro kernel)
- download

Go-OO 3.2 sfs4 for Puppy 4.3.xx with 2.6.30.5 kernel)

- md5sum f959f551373e5355dc956aee9ad119d8 go-oo-3.2-sfs4.sfs
I added:
- En_Us dictionary
see also my dokupuppy page: http://puppylover.netsons.org/dokupuppy ... uite:go-oo
Go-oo has built in OpenXML import filters and it will import your Microsoft Works files. Compared with up-stream OO.o, it has better Microsoft binary file support (with eg. fields support), and it will import WordPerfect graphics beautifully. If you are reliant on Excel VBA macros - then Go-oo offers the best macro fidelity too. If you expect your spreadsheets to calculate compatibly, or you get embedded Visio diagrams in your documents, you'll want Go-oo.

Hi
Trying to use this sfs in dpup 484 beta 4. Every document I try to open (all Word docs) I get this error:
'General Error:
General input/output error."
What does this mean? Any idea? the OO forums are full of this error, with no clear explanation as to what this means except that one should delete the configuration folder from one's home directory. But there is no folder in my home directory as this is the first time I have tried to use go-oo on a fresh pupsave...

very strange, I opened word and odt files without problems, can you attach a sample file (only dummy text, like loremipsum ecc...) in order to allow other users to report their experience?

Thanks Dingo for the help. Here's a zip file containing a sample doc and a sample odt. Both created using the normal OpenOffice 3.2 sfs file for dpup that someone has made (available at ver 5 sfs files in ibiblio), which seems to work ok. Same errors produced in Go-OO.

Tried but... No way! same error you reported. Something is wrong or in sources or in python script, Use Go-oo 3.1.1 until solution will be found

Go-OO team has fixed the bug causing "GENERAL IMPORT ERROR"
I re-built sfs packages and re-uploaded (see first post for download)
now Go-Oo is fully working

Just a couple of comments here, and maybe a question or two:
I downloaded Go-OO 3.2 sfs4 (for Puppy 4.3.xx with 2.6.30.5 kernel) this past week and it works well. There are no menu entries and, while the ROX pinboard/desktop icons look okay in Lighthousepup 443f (final), they look terrible in Puppy 4.31 (official) -- kinda' like they are 16x16.png's trying to display as 48x48.png's. Tried editing my downloaded sfs in Lighthouse to add the OpenOffice desktop icons from Barry's OO3.1.1 compilation, but was unsuccessful -- ended up just adding OpenOffice3.1.1 icons to a 'My Documents' folder and setting them via ROX's set icon function. It is a small matter since the program does work (and even has .docx capability)!
Does this sfs have Java included and -- if it does not -- where/how can I add it?
Which functions in Open Office even require Java to run?
All in all, this is a great program that I am thankful you took the time to Puppify (is that even a word?)!

It's not a dumb question, it's one of the things Puppy does a little differently from other distros. This distro has many different package installation options. Anyway, see this http://www.puppylinux.com/development/p ... gement.htm and look under "SFS modules" to see how to install this one.Gopher wrote:Hi. Sorry, I'm dumb, but how do I start the program once it's downloaded and mounted? There doesn't seem to be a menu option, and none of the commands I tried did anything.

I have used SFS files before, and I'm pretty sure this one should be installed. I'm using 4.0, and I downloaded from the first link in the original post. I renamed it with the '_400.sfs' suffix so it would automatically be loaded with the other two sfs files, which work ok.
My question is how do I run the program now? As I said, I don't see any new entries on the menu.

GO-OO
I could install GO-OO and can start Writer/Calc/Impress but in Impress, the "3D transitions" (http://go-oo.org/discover/) won't work.
(I have no problem with the "normal" transitions; those work fine)
What do I forget ?
Or does this not work in Puppy Linux ?
