Wow, I am very impressed with getting a machine from apple and a location in their stand. I think this is very important !! :-) I don't have a mactel machine, but if you want any type of help in some other area, please let me know.

Very cool!!!

Hi,


For the record, OpenOffice.org 2.0 works on Mactel. This is not perfect because bridges needs still some adjustments, but OpenOffice.org 2.0 works already very well.

For more informations, please have a look at my blog : <http://eric.bachard.free.fr/news>


*Last minute* :

To help us, Apple proposed us a place on their stand (a machine is reserved), to present OpenOffice.org Universal Binaries on Solution Linux in Paris (31january ~3 february 2006). I have accepted te proposition, and will try to provide them Universal Binaries in time.


FYI : current Status of OpenOffice.org on Mac Intel :

1) Intel version , not using Rosetta :

- 1.1.5 -> no build (not sure it will be buildable using gcc-4.0.x)
- OpenOffice.org 2.0.x installs, and works fine. Java works fine too. Just some well identified cases cause instant crashes


2) PowerPC versions (using Rosetta to work ) :

- 1.1.5 (ppc) works without any problem on Mactel : install dictionnaries, fonts, everything works. To make short, all QA tests are ok. I prefer not say more, but it's not slow.

- All 2.0.x (ppc) are working well too (excepted Java part). I have read somewhere that someone has made it work (some configuration tip I forgot since). Not investigated more.


Again, many thanks to *Daniel Boelzle*, *Stephan Bergmann* , *Florian Heckl* for their help, without forget *Cusoon* and *Team OpenOffice.org e.V* for the Mactel(s) rent !




Regards,
eric bachard
