Open Office ja X11-päivitys

[rosteri]

Kuten varmaan monet ovat huomanneet, niin Open Office kaatuu käynnistyessään tuon X11 päivityksen jälkeen. Tässä ohessa on ratkaisu tuon ko. ongelman korjaamiseen:

It has come to our attention that there is a problem in the latest stable release of OpenOffice.org on the Mac and the X11 Update that Apple released on 1 November 2006. The problem is related to the Vera fonts that are related to the X11 update. We have found the following solution that will require an administrator user account for each machine concerned. Please follow the following steps which will allow OpenOffice.org to run again.

1. Log in as an Administrator (if you haven't already), an Administrator account is created by default when you install Mac OS X or setup your computer for the first time.
2. Start the program called Terminal, it is located in the Utilities folder.
3. Copy and paste the following command into the Terminal window: sudo mkdir -p /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF.bad
4. You will be asked for your password for the account that you are logged in under. Type it in, don't worry, your password won't be shown to the world.
5. Copy and paste the following command into the same Terminal window as above (all on one line): sudo mv /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/Vera*.ttf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF.bad
6. You should now be able to start OpenOffice.org normally.

When OpenOffice.org 2.1 is released, please upgrade as it will not have an issue with this. Apple should also be releasing an updated X11 update soon with the corrected Fonts.

Noniin, tänään tuli uusin X11-päivitys, joka lupaa, että fonttiongelmat on korjattu. Ts. OpenOfficen pitäisi nyt toimia normaalisti, ilman ensimmäisen viestini ohjetta.
