I just tested on my 8.04 test system w/(U)OOo2.4.1; works for me. Nothing special has been set as the test system is a clean install with no modifications made to (U)OOo2.4.1. Did Ctrl-Shift-u, entered 157 and got ŗ. I will note however that the complete OOo is _not_ installed - only the basic bits installed from the initial distribution installation. That means that it doesn't have the (U) openoffice.org or openoffice.org-evolution packages installed - i.e., no java in (U)OOo. So let me install those, enable java in (U)OOo and test again... Done. And Ctrl-Shift-u still works fine. Not an default (U)OOo problem - perhaps something in the user profile or an extension? I'd recommend temporarily renaming ~/.openoffice.org2 to ~/x-.openoffice.org-x, restarting (U)OOo and see if the problem still occurs in the new profile. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
