HA! Finally *really* resolve! I got to thinking...since I could run as root, but not user, that, there might be come user specific config that was messing stuff up. Once more I deleted the ENTIRE installation, (aptitude purge), and, this time, went into my /home to make sure there were no remnants of any configs (in my experience, these purges often neglect configs in /home). Well, guess what...there WAS .libreoffice directory still in there! I imagine it was, indeed, the .libreoffice dir that I had backup from my old machine (regular old 32bit x86 debian on celeron processor), since I had copied the entire backup of that machine's /home to this new machine (saves a lot of time, since my old configs come right over). I went in there and did a rm -rf * then up to /home and rmidir .libreoffice, then, once more, installed the debs from the tarball from the site. Now, finally, it IS running, as user, without dumping. I still had to go in and rm the libcairo.so.2 from /opt/libreoffice/basis3.3/program (don't know why, but removing it and forcing the program to use the debian libcairo.so.2 in /usr/lib fixes another little error). Now, all is sunshine and flowers and happiness.
So, in the end, the biggest issues was that I copied over the configs from an older machine. My bad. In any case, thanks for all of your assistance. tony -- http://www.baldwinlinguas.com http://www.baldwinsoftware.com -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
