Very interesting

Thx for the hint, i'll try it

I have something neat too:

OOo2 Optimiser

Not mine, it compresses the XML code in the OOo2 package. Makes OOo2 start up a lot faster

Excuse me, how should I use this script? Just run it once whenever I upgrade openoffice ?

Thank you! :-[

Yes, and change the directory variable to reflect the location of the openoffice files on Zenwalk.

Thanks! The combination of the two tips works better! $\!D/$ Now openoffice runs smoother on my P4 with only 256 MB RAM...

Is it true that for Zenwalk this directory would be:

Quote:

openoffice_dir="/usr/X11/lib/openoffice.org2.3"

?

Best regards,
Claus

Hey,

Borromini's link is 404 and the ubuntu tip (quickstart openoffice), this button is greyed out. So I can't put a 'v' in it. And I have never been able to do so in Zenwalk's OOo's. No feature for me or for any ZenWalker?
Maybe it is possible to make Zenwalk load the libraries that OOo uses at boottime?

Ron

Btw: Happy New Year all!

Here's a copy of that script from Borromini's link:

Tnx,

But what kind of file is it? There are only unreadable characters.
How should I use it?

Kind regards, Ron

I'll re-up the sscript this evening.

Edit: I pasted it online. Here you go.

i suggest a real method to increase performance of OpenOffice. the only way out is DOCK TO TRAY. by using kdocker or alltray.

but there is a difficulty. in manual mode (when you by using mouse indicates window) kdocker succesfully kick openoffice window to tray, but through command line it did not work by default. the solution is to define window ID of opened OpenOffice window and transfer it to kdocker.

here is script that you need put in $HOME/.kde/Autostart/office-to-tray.sh

#!/bin/bash

/opt/openoffice.org2.4/program/scalc -norestore &

sleep 15

/usr/local/bin/kdocker -w `/usr/X11R6/bin/xwininfo -root -children -tree | /bin/grep "OpenOffice.org Calc" | awk '{ print $1 }'` &

/opt/openoffice.org2.4/program/swriter -norestore $HOME/.1.doc

sleep 5

/usr/local/bin/kdocker -w `/usr/X11R6/bin/xwininfo -root -children -tree | /bin/grep ".1 - OpenOffice.org Writer" | awk '{ print $1 }'` &

and you need put small simple .1.doc file to $HOME.

the result: celeron 1800,512Mb,FC4,KDE , xls file 450kb open for 5 seconds!
and if use icewm even 4 seconds:)
