|
|
I've been compiling OpenOffice.org (the binary version is way too slow on launch) for about a day and a half now. Anyway, I was wondering... can it use TTF fonts that i've registered with X with fc-cache? Because AbiWord has problems with fonts it didn't install... >_<
And on a side note, can I make GPM start at boot time? _________________ old outdated sig |

1) Start `/usr/bin/oopadmin` select "Fonts" and add the font dirs.
2) Didn't `rc-update add gpm default` work?

Will recompiling OpenOffice really make it launch quicker than the binary version? If so, for what reason?
I find OpenOffice 1.1rc3 (binary release) to launch fairly quickly, but could I see an improvement here as well if I'd recompile it myself? |

Remenic... Well, I'd believe it would launch faster. The binary version is probably optimized for an i386 for compatibility. BUt remember, compiling it yourself makes it optimized for your machine. ^_^ _________________ old outdated sig |
