Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: start up speed
Hi :) I tend to make / around 10-15Gb now for Ubuntu. 100Mb is about enough for a separate /boot partiiton but not enough for the / of most distros, especially not for the most bloated distro of all. I've found that even 8Gb gets in trouble quite quickly unless you are quite good at doing maintenance such as using the Janitor fairly often.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Base: In basic, how do you open a form to a particular record number?
Hi Jason, You might be able to adapt this Sub for your needs: - Sub FindRecord(iTargetID AS Integer) Dim oColumn AS Object Dim iColumnValue AS Integer Dim iRowAS Integer Dim rs AS Object Dim sTargetIDAS String rs = goFormTransHeader.createResultSet() if rs.absolute(iTargetID) = false then ' Check if rs is past end of Table rs.Previous() End if Do oColumn = rs.Columns.getByName(TransHeaderID) iColumnValue = rs.getInt(1) iRow = rs.Row if iColumnValue = iTargetID then goFormTransHeader.absolute(iRow) Exit Sub else if iColumnValue iTargetID then sTargetID = iTargetID MsgBox(Record + sTargetID + not found,0,ERROR) Exit Sub End if End if Loop While rs.Previous() End Sub Notes:- 1. TargetID is the key value for the record I want to display on the Form 2. goFormTransHeader is my global variable for the Form 3. TransHeaderID is the key field of my Table. (Integer, auto increment) 4. I have relatively few deletions from the Table so TransHeaderID is fairly close to the required row number. Thus a number of rs.Previous() cycles is usually all I need. In your case if that is too slow, you might need to consider doing a binary search. Let me know if you have any questions.

YES my point exactly Unless we do such a large data gathering project taking into account all of the different options, EVERYTHING is just guesswork or personally view performance. Some faster systems, for whatever reasons, load and run LO slower than the slower CPU called slower due to number of cores or the speed at which it is running at. So all it opinion until someone decides to prove those opinions and results on an individual basis.

The question really is how well does Writer load both. How well it load the 10 page documents vs. the 50 page ones. Both with the same average number of graphics per page. Then look at the simple 20 or 50 page documents vs. the very complex ones. Get an over all load times for the same documents on Writer and Word on various Windows systems and various version of Windows [Win7 - Home/H. Premium/Professional - 64-bit and 32-bit. Vista versions in both 32 and 64 bit.] Then look into the same documents with Writer run on some of the different version of Linux [32-bit and 64-bit OS] such as Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, Mageia, Arch, etc., etc.. Then with all that data make a chart and add to it every time someone tries the standard documents on different systems and specifications. Then we would have a chart that will tell us how much different systems and specifications effect the load and run speeds of LO, Writer specifically, and Word specifically. Does more RAM or more CPU power influence it most. How does 4.0.4 vs 4.1.0 compare on the same system/specs. How much faster a 64-bit install is over the same distro's 32-bit version. What you're requesting here is an exact benchmark with will take so much time and effort. Besides different file formats, size and heaviness of the file, different OSes and different HW Architectures, the exact conditions of the system during experiment (like the software and processes running in the background, etc.) and the number of repetitions for each experiment must also be specified. Ideally no other excessive processes must be run and each experiment must run more than 10 times. It's accurate to write a test program to automatically test these factors with any repetition desired. But doing all these is a major job and takes much time and effort. If I'd done this before, I've published this on my website or other major website, not on this mailing list which doesn't have many visitors. I only wanted to show you a rule of thumb about LO Writer dealing with heavy files. Without these types of data charted, we could just say what we think is true or want works better for you. To be honest, when I was using it and it worked well, my AMD64 CPU laptop worked better than my Intel dual core laptop. When I asked why my older slower AMD laptop worked faster creating the .iso file using DeVeDe .avi/.mp4 file to DVD-movie disc conversion tool, I was told that the faster dual core laptop was not powerful enough to do the work even though my older slower AMD64 laptop could do it just fine. So, no matter how I think it should not be true, sometimes newer faster systems that we think is more powerful and faster might now be a good as we think and the older slower less powerful systems might actually work better at some job or package. Slower single core laptop working better than a faster speed dual core laptop, does not make sense, but in practice it works that way. I doesn't say that. Actually I exactly said opposite of that. I have a single core pentium4 @2.8GHz desktop which runs LO Writer faster than my dual core core2due @2.2GHz laptop. Maybe power of both cores of my laptop be more than power of cpu of my desktop, but power of a single core of my laptop is surely less than power of a single core of my desktop and because LO only uses 1 core, my older desktop PC wins. So, maybe someone should collect some data and let us know how it worked out. Maybe we could be surprised on what we find. Making a precise benchmark is always a valuable and highly regarded work, can practically assess a software and help to make it better. I sure was running DeVeDe on 2 different laptops, both as XP/Vista and Ubuntu 10.04/ U. 10.04 systems. Regards, Sina Momken On 08/06/2013 06:44 PM, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Brilliant.

My Ubuntu 12.04 LTS system, after all of its updates and upgrades from the repository, and the fact that it seems a lot of the older packages were left on the system, my OS folders now total about 98-GB. 1,000 GB total less 78.7 GB free space less 823.5 GB in the /home folder and sub-folders making all of the other folders in the filesystem totaling 97.8 GB for the OS. This OS figure also includes the 11 GB swap and a 11 GB extended partition [for what Ubuntu uses it for I do not know, but it created it]. So take away the 22 GB of partitions outside of that main partition, you get 75.8 GB of OS file space for 12.04LTS plus the two partitions it needs to run. If I used a 10-15 GB for the OS, I would be sunk. I do not separate the /home into its own partition, since all of the docs and help seems to confuse me on how to set up all of the different partitions during the install process. In a few months, I hope to replace that 1 TB drive with a 2 TB one. I planned on creating a 500 GB partition for the OS file system including the OS, /home, and the needed swap and other partition[s] needed. The rest of the drive, 1.5 TB, will be used as a separate data drive so I can have a smaller /home folder size and keep everything not actively worked on out of the /home folder. Also, I have taken a 2 TB internal drive and used it for the first stage backup, or internal backup, of the essential /home folder files, like the hidden dot folders and things like my photo folder that contains sub-folders by year and then month of all my digital photo since Sept. 2005 - when I bought my first digital camera. I have a whole box of photos needing to be scanned in from the early 70's to then, that I will one day get around to scanning an archiving. Unfortunately, I have more internal drive space than external drive backup space. So I need to start buying more of those drives to back up my system. It does help that most of my 2nd 2-TB drive is used as an internal backup, so it currently does not need external a separate external backup. But I do have one 1-TB and two 2-TB drives, currently, and later at least 6-TB [maybe 7, 8, or more] internal storage to be backed up externally.

Be careful when you install the 64-bit os, so as to NOT make a new /home. Note that you probably already have a swap partition, so don't make another one. Any and all Linux os's on the disk can use the one swap. It has been quite a while since I did an Ubuntu install, so I can't be more specific. And I don't think I would try this with Korora--

Then we would have a chart that will tell us how much different systems and specifications effect the load and run speeds of LO, Writer specifically, and Word specifically.

Besides different file formats, size and heaviness of the file, different OSes and different HW Architectures, the exact conditions of the system during experiment (like the software and processes running in the background, etc.) and the number of repetitions for each experiment must also be specified. Ideally no other excessive processes must be run and each experiment must run more than 10 times. It's accurate to write a test program to automatically test these factors with any repetition desired. But doing all these is a major job and takes much time and effort. If I'd done this before, I've published this on my website or other major website, not on this mailing list which doesn't have many visitors. I only wanted to show you a rule of thumb about LO Writer dealing with heavy files. Without these types of data charted, we could just say what we think is true or want works better for you. To be honest, when I was using it and it worked well, my AMD64 CPU laptop worked better than my Intel dual core laptop. When I asked why my older slower AMD laptop worked faster creating the .iso file using DeVeDe .avi/.mp4 file to DVD-movie disc conversion tool, I was told that the faster dual core laptop was not powerful enough to do the work even though my older slower AMD64 laptop could do it just fine. So, no matter how I think it should not be true, sometimes newer faster systems that we think is more powerful and faster might now be a good as we think and the older slower less powerful systems might actually work better at some job or package. Slower single core laptop working better than a faster speed dual core laptop, does not make sense, but in practice it works that way. I doesn't say that. Actually I exactly said opposite of that. I have a single core pentium4 @2.8GHz desktop which runs LO Writer faster than my dual core core2due @2.2GHz laptop. Maybe power of both cores of my laptop be more than power of cpu of my desktop, but power of a single core of my laptop is surely less than power of a single core of my desktop and because LO only uses 1 core, my older desktop PC wins. So, maybe someone should collect some data and let us know how it worked out. Maybe we could be surprised on what we find.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: start up speed
Yes, there are a lot of people who can give others proof of what their system can do. Either by an active demonstration or via benchmark packages. I love doing active presentations to non-believers. I have taken and proved that LO can do things that I claim, by bringing my laptop[s] to these people and run LO through some tests. Then I hand them a USB drive and ask them to place some sample documents they use on a daily/weakly basis and then open them up with LO and show them that yes LO can work with your files easily. I once had them click on their Word icon on their multi-core Windows desktop and the same time as I click on the LO icon on my Windows boot partition of my Windows/Ubuntu dual booting laptop[s]. Now that we have Win7 as the new standard for business computers, I can use either my Win7 Home Premium laptop or my Win7 Professional one. Both are dual core laptops, but the Professional install is on the slower system. One day I will take the Home laptop and make it Professional to solve some back port issues where Home might not allow certain XP and Vista era packages to be installed while Professional has not problem installing those packages. So having a live demonstration on what LO can do and how fast it can do those things is a good marketing tool. Having a benchmark style of information sheet tends to make many manager's eyes cloud over and ears stop hearing you as you discuss the benchmark results. Yes, there can be some guesswork for some things, and some subjective issues, but it does not mean that those guesses are wrong. The seconds count or timed with a stopwatch is not very accurate if it is the difference of a second plus/minus. But most people can not tell the difference between 3 and 4 seconds, or 3.4 and 4.1 seconds. We are not built that way, or most of us are not build that way.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: start up speed
Well, in the Disk utility, there is a gray area that is the ext4 partition. The small space left it split in half, top half and bottom half. It sure reads like they are separate partitions, since they are both named using the partition word. Extended partition and Swap Partition. Unless they created the Extended partition and created a new partition within it, that is. Still whether it is 11 GB or 22 GB of space, it still is either 87 GB for the OS folders or 76 GB [roughly]. 76 to 87 GB is a lot more than your 10-15 GB you tell me is needed. Sure, when I do a new/fresh install of a Ubuntu system on a drive, the OS file space takes up little of the disk. BUT, and the big-but is what size do you need to have after a year or more? I installed 12.04LTS a few days after it came out. I did a clean install after backing up all my /home files. Then I restored all my data/files and then started to install all of the packages I needed to install to run the system the way I like. 12.04 comes with Unity desktop environment. I do not like it, so I install MATE. Then, there are some packages that need some of the KDE files. K3b and other packages and utilities I use are default package with KDE and seems to want some KDE system files installed. 2+ desktop environments can add space to the OS. The plus is the KDE system files. I use to install the FULL set of packages for KDE d.e. but decided that I did not need to do that when I did my 12.04LTS upgrade. I let the packages install whatever dependencies they needed. On 08/07/2013 09:18 AM, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) My guess is thatUbuntu created an 11Gb Extended Partition purely to put the 11Gb Swap in.

[libreoffice-users] Re: [4.0/Win] Edit form?
Hi :) Seems like they are trying to go for the prize of most pointlessly awkward form based on just bad formatting options rather than anything sinister or really clever. Step 1 From the web-page the file opened as Read only so i had to save it locally to fill it in Step 2 Adjust the font sizes and box sizes until they didn't look so bad Step 3 Was clicking inside the box, then outside again, then inside (repeat until laughing hopelessly or screaming) until at last the thing actually lets you type instead of just being able to adjust the box. Note this was made easier by step 2 where i made the boxes big enough to type in. Lost.in.Post.Declaration1.odt http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n4069254/Lost.in.Post.Declaration1.odt Every fortnight i have to fill in a stupid pointless form that doesn't actually have any spaces for the information the people that designed the form want to know about. So i hand the form in and then they have to ask me all the stuff they needed to know and, of course, completely ignore all the stuff that i had filled in by doing as the form told me to! I'm sure there are awards for designing bad forms.

[libreoffice-users] Installing Win7
Hi :) I'm just installing Win7 to a machine that already had WinXp working sort-of-fine-ish. One of the early screens said the process would involve rebooting itself several times and i should ignore it and let it get on with it. Then it gave me a few choices which i had to click on. I think i had to fill in something too. (ie so i couldn't just ignore it). When it rebooted the cd/dvd stayed in the drive. Should i press Any key to get back to the installer or not. I chose to do so. Opps, wrong. Stupid user aren't i? I should have known that it kept the Cd/Dvd in the drive in order to not use it. Ooops, now it has told me to let it reboot again and ignore it. Next screen needs me to fill in something. I begin to see a pattern forming here. It asks for a user-name and decides i probably want to call the machine the same thing. The next key seemed a bit sticky. Suddenly i am passed the passwords screen without having set a password. No Back button. It's taken half an hour which is not bad. It's about the same as Ubuntu on the same machine. First thing to do is to hunt down and change the password, or even delete the non-Admin local user. 2nd is to make the machine part of the domain so all the normal desktop users can use the logins stored on the MS Exchange Server. The installer did just ask if the machine is part of a company network but i'm not sure why because i have to hunt down all that set-up myself. It's just put me on a new workgroup called WORKGROUP because they have to shout. When i get to type in a domain it's already guessed i must want the domain to have the same name as my laptop. Guess i should go around and change all the other machines to that instead of using the existing one. If i want a different domain name i have to guess it or already know it. There is no browsing to search for it. i can't be nearly right and let it give me the rest. I have to be spot on. It asks for a userpass for the domain and then gives a pop-up with a warning triangle to tell me i guessed right. It asks if i want to use the right guess or try again. Now it asks if i want to add a domain user to the local machine. 'Obviously' i made a mistake so i cancel and find the mistake i made was clicking the button Network ID instead of the button Change. Now it does guess the correct domain. Was that because i typed it in the other box or did it really find out? Still no browse button so if the guess was wrong i would have to know. Oh, the Ok button is greyed out. So although the text besides the Ok button said i could change the domain this way it doesn't use that way to confirm. Going back to the Network ID button that looked dodgy before i have to type the userpass and domain name twice in 2 different boxes and domain can only be in capital letters despite the domain name appearing everywhere else in a mix of upper and lower-case. If i do add a domain user at this point then allegedly they have full access to all the files, folders and programs anywhere on the network. I guess this is the new improved security. Now i am back at the System Properties box and Apply is greyed out so is it going to forget what i filled in like it would for changing the Virtual Memory? Now starts my endless cycle of updatesreboots. Oh, and i have to install tons of programs rather than being given nice safe 3rd party ones that i could use straight-away or swap out for my preferred ones. These updatesreboots don't make any effort to update drivers, codecs, libraries or other programs. It's just about the core OS. Later i will go to MS.com and find several critical security updates that weren't included in the auto-updates When setting the Virtual Memory it told me there were 2 other hard-drives in this laptop. Of course using a separate physical hard-drive might be quite a boost to performance if Virtual Memory ever gets used and reduces weartear. Saves the read/write head bouncing between so many different areas of the hard-drive. Just in time i remember it's talking about separate partitions on the same physical hard-drive. They just call them hard-drives because they think users are too dumb to understand the difference and need to be saved from all this complexity. I get really hacked off when people tell me this is easier than installing any GnuLinux distro. It's as though they had never actually tried either to comparecontrast.

Normally no 'non-Admin local user' is created. I think only 1 user is created, and this user is an 'Admin'. A normal Windows setup would have the user (USER, in MS-ese) with non-admin permissions, and you'd have to open admin permissions. I don't remember how, but if you're going to get into the nuts and bolts, you'd better obtain a book. Once you figure out how to get to an admin terminal, you can put an icon on the desktop to get to it again when you need it. If it's setup right from the install, I seem to remember you can have it start with the option of user or admin, with same or different passwords. I don't know if you can do that once it's installed, but one of the books may tell you. The main problem is, to find out what you can do, and how to do it, from a command line, since most of the literature--particularly that from MS--tries to do everything from a GUI. For programs or modifications that require Admin perms in the desktop environment, normally the system will tell you to enter the password, so you need to get that straightened out. I have several Win 7 books, but the most useful, generally, I think, is a QUE publication called Windows 7 in Depth. $49.99. Maybe it's on sale, now that Win 8 is out? I also have Wiley's publication, Windows 7 Bible, $39.95. And I think you can download a list of commands for the terminal interface. Frankly, Windows is a PITA, but there are some things you can't do otherwise. --doug 2nd is to make the machine part of the domain so all the normal desktop users can use the logins stored on the MS Exchange Server.

[libreoffice-users] Sequentially numberted tickets...
I have been asked to design and print numbered tickets for an event being organised by a Club to which my wife belongs. Starting from the left edge: (a) in the first third details of the event and a number. This is the stub (b) in the remaining two thirds there is an image to the left and then details of the event. This is the ticket (c) each ticket has two numbers (both the same) printed to justify right on the stub and on the ticket (d) each ticket spans the width of an A4 page (f) there are four tickets to an A4 page (g) the ticket will be perforated between the stub and the ticket to allow for easy detachment (h) Designing the ticket is not a problem. But how do I ensure that the numbers are printed sequentially in groups of two? Is it possible to do this on LibreOffice? I realise that it is possible to number each ticket on a A4 page and then print it but as it is looking like 150 tickets that looks like a lot of work.
