HI Steve, Thanks very much for the input. It got me tracking in the right direction. It turns out that the new Linux server on our system (where our home directories are stored) is not doing file ownership correctly. All the files in our home directories have nobody for user and group. I turned off the mount and tried a local user and LO worked fine. I'll get in contact with the SA's and have them look into the problem on our server.
Thanks again -- Pat -----Original Message----- From: Steve Edmonds [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2011 1:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with LibreOffice on OpenSuse 11.4 Hi. Which version of LO, from the LO download site or a repository. Is it a fresh install or update of a previous installation. I have noticed the same problem installing from the LO site to 11.0 and 11.3 where I deleted a lib file to resolve the issue (there were 2 libs of the same name but different versions and one (the default to load) didn't work). Try starting LO in a terminal and I think you get the message with the name. Then do a locate on the name (if you have the find utils installed) to find the 2 instances. steve On 18/08/11 6:34 AM, Pat Bain wrote: > Hi All, > > > > I have installed Suse 11.4 on a couple of computers and in both cases > LibreOffice will run for root but not for ordinary users.
