Hello Koen, Shaun from the Mac porting team has this solution (I hope it still works): X11 Time out solution: http://shaunmcdonald131.blogspot.com/2008/03/ooo-possible-fix-for-command-timed-out.html Personally, I have installed the beta-2 version of OpenOffice.org 3.0 Aqua that works without X11 (not yet an official release, and so it may crash, have bugs etc., but generally it works fine). Dutch versions of the OOo-in-development can be found here: NL versies (nieuw) : http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/NL/QA/Testen English versions on Good-Day (I have the beta-2): Good day: http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/ Good luck, -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua 3.0.0 Beta-2 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo Aqua 3.0.0 Beta-2 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
