Hi Nikos,

To get ODF to work, you must have Sun Java installed from the restricted repositories. If you don't install that version, it won't work.

Cheers,

It worked for me out of the box with LyX 1.6.4 / Ubuntu 9.10.

The transformation of a multi-page internal design document went smoothly,

That's good news. Do you use labels/indices in your .lyx document?

The formatting needs minor tweaks as OO.org doesn't include spacings
for some of the styles that are attractive, but otherwise it seemed to
work pretty well.

Just for fun, I ran a beamer presentation through just to see if I could break it, and it seemed to handle it ok. The formatting was certainly
FUBAR, as you might expect, but the text and graphics were all there.

That's positive :-). Hopefully one day it'll be a single-step away to
get an acceptable conversion (of what can be actually converted) to the
most widespread formats :-)
