I confirm this bug on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy/32-bit) with latest OpenOffice package 2.0.4-0ubuntu5 I could find.
Reproducable use-case A: Start OpenOffice Writer File -> Open cd to Samba Shares, Windows network, select server, directory, and then select a .doc or .odt file click OK Error message pops up: Protocol "smb" is supported only partially. Local copy of the file will be created. The document is open, but is located in /tmp/kde-$USERNAME/ Reproducable use-case B: (as already described by others here) OpenOffice Writer is not running yet! Start Konqueror cd to Samba Shares, Windows network, select server, directory, and then select a .doc or .odt file OOo splash screen pops up and disappears after a while No OOo came up, no document shown, no error message shown. This error prevents me from working reasonably with OOo in the office. I have always to take care to move the files from the temp directory to the original samba directory and vice versa, all in the correct versions and so on... this costs time and is error-prone... that's not really funny. I wonder why this error is still "unconfirmed" since it seems to be that this bug is pretty old. -- Kubuntu / KDE SMB network error using openoffice word docs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/15451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
