[gentoo-user] Open Office wants to speak to me in Greek!
I have an odd problem with Open Office: all the menus and dialogs from Open Office are using Greek character sets and not the usual ones. I can read them since I know most of the Greek characters, but this doesn't come easy :) Here is a screen shot: http://electronsweatshop.com/oo.jpg As you can see, the menus at the top of OO in the background are in Greek, and the Options menu is also in Greek. I believe this happened during an upgrade sometime over the summer, but I can't be sure of when because honestly I haven't used Open Office on this machine in a long while (2 or 3 months). Another odd tidbit is that I have another machine that runs OO just fine. The only real difference is software setup between the two machines is that on the problematic one I use Gnome, and on the other I use KDE. I do not find this problem in any of my other applications though, so I doubt that is relevant.

I had this problem with that font and I solved this problem that way -- best regards, Aleksey V.

I always had lots of issues regarding how OpenOffice deals with locales, fonts, etc. I'd recommend that you open up a terminal, check out your environment (env, set, export, etc), adjust whatever you find necessary, and start oowriter from there. - -- Arturo Buanzo Busleiman - Consultor Independiente en Seguridad Informatica *ESTE SABADO 18/Ago* SHOW DE FUTURABANDA (Punk Libre)- Sarmiento 1679 CapFed Entradas anticipadas a traves de www.futurabanda.com.ar - Punk Rock Melodico -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGxEIYAlpOsGhXcE0RCoHVAJ9msluCrfj3uST3U/+5vcyr8MSXwgCggoc4 JiDqA62+nj9UOf/eGrYoFpA= =BPVo -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
