Bug ID: 155160
Summary: Will not open other drive on the PC
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.3.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I have a desktop PC 4 core, @ 3.40GHz, 32Gigs memory OS 64-bit,
Dual boot Ubuntu 22.04.02 LTS, GNOME version 42.5 on one drive
Windows 10 on its own drive.
I have a DATA drive that serves both drives.
I have run LibreOffice 7.3.7.2 (still operational)
7.4.5.1 (Ubuntu didn't like it but it worked for me)
Both of these versions accessed other drives on my PC, including the DATA
drive.
I upgraded with SNAP to 7.5.3.2.
The program will not access the DATA drive, only the Home/Linux/Documents.
I went to Tools/Options and selected Paths.
I found the Documents path; clicked on it and selected Edit, no other drive
can be accessed for a change. Why?
The other versions worked well in finding the DATA drive plus.
Note also, 7.5 would not access a thumb drive.
So, what am I missing? I did make sure the DATA drive and thumb drive were
mounted.
I do not use outside sources for storage and I do not have a network.
OK, I am up to suggestions or is this a missed item of programing?
And finally an onboard DATA drive is and has always worked when the OS drives
have failed.
I am living proof this can happen.
Hope I provided enough info of the issue.
