Hi Jiang,
A happy new year! - and - i think you should raise as an issue.
so that every one aware of that. We can choose the filesystem
of Mac at the installation, and since Panther (IIRC by
command line) we can choose case sensitive/insensitive HFS+.
Best,

Hi All,
I tested m38 (thanks to Maho), it still crashed, sorry. But, I found that the
crash appeared only when I clicked on the _Document_ folder which was mounted
to my PPC from our afp server, not other folders, then I looked into the
particular pattern of this special _Document_ folder, I realized that there
were two folders namely _ArcSoft_ and _Arcsoft_ representing two different
directories - this was the cause! OpenOffice with the Apple native dialogs does
not work well with case sensitive folders.
To prove this, I tested back and forth by renaming one of them to a totally
different name, eg. ArcSoft2, it work perfectly!
By default, my local Mac HDs are case insensitive, no problem with the Apple
dialogs, however our afp server is case sensitive, so here is the opportunity
to create two different folders with same characters that crash OpenOffice.
I hope this makes sense.
yes, it makes sense.
