In reference to Anthony post on 2008-05-15, I added these two packages (part of the ubuntu-desktop full install packages):
sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-gnome openoffice.org-gtk and got it working. Now I can open files from any Windows share. My Ubuntu installation was a minimal Gnome installation over a 8.1 server edition so I could get a Vmware Windows XP virtual machines running faster. A full ubuntu-desktop was taking lots of CPU resources. -- Kubuntu SMB issue with OpenOffice https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/15451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
