Any movement on this?  I think it's quite serious--surely there must be
people who use openoffice on ubuntu for serious work?

If it is a problem with freetype, then why do the fonts look fine in the 
version of OpenOffice downloaded from OpenOffice.org?
The original version of OpenOffice works, the Ubuntu-modified version does not. 
 That suggests that Ubuntu modified something in OpenOffice to make it not work.

Surely this must be considered a serious bug.  The flagship open source
word processor doesn't work properly on Hardy.  This precludes the use
of Hardy for any kind of office use or serious work, or at least makes
Ubuntu look inferior to anyone who attempts to use it.

[Bug 256058] [NEW] OpenOffice does not render fonts correctly in Hardy

2008-08-08 Thread flar
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I just installed Hardy and the fonts in documents look terrible in
OpenOffice. Specifically I'm using Times New Roman. I have msttcorefonts
installed and all other apps are fine.  The letters look unevenly spaced
and different font sizes look like completely different fonts.

I have attached screenshots from Gutsy and Hardy to show the difference.
Notice how in Gutsy everything was uniform, and all the letters can be
seen clearly. In Hardy, the letters run together and the 11 point font
in the quotation looks much different than the 12 point font used in the
rest of the text. The text on Hardy looks cheap and amateur.

I installed upstream version of OpenOffice for comparison and these
problems are not evident.  So the problem seems to be the result of an
Ubuntu patch to OpenOffice. Why change this? Font rendering in
OpenOffice was perfectly fine in Gutsy. This is a show stopper for me
because I use this computer for work, and these fonts make it difficult
to read.

They are both Times New Roman.

 I have the same results on my laptop and desktop computers as well.  I
have run Ubuntu on my desktop since Warty and this has never been an
issue until Hardy.

[Bug 128852] Re: Problems with resume from suspend to RAM on Thinkpad Z61m

2007-10-24 Thread flar
I have the exact same problem

I'm using an Acer 5570 laptop.  Core Duo T2450, Intel graphics.

Everything works fine when I manually initiate suspend, but suspend when
the system is idle results in "suspend failed" dialog and  immediate
hibernation upon resume.

[Bug 379873] Re: CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor reports incorrect CPU speeds when overclocked

2010-09-01 Thread flar
This affects both of my computers, exactly as described in the first
post.

Athlon 64 x2 4000 on Asus M2N-E motherboard running Lucid 32-bit
actual clock: 2362MHz
reported: 1000-2100Mhz (frequency scaling enabled in bios)
reported: 2362MHz (frequency scaling disabled in bios)

Phenom II x2 555BE on Gigabyte ga-ma785gm-us2h running Lucid 64-bit
actual clock: 3750MHz
reported: 800-3000MHz  (frequency scaling enabled in bios)
reported: 3750MHz (frequency scaling disabled in bios)

Benchmarks confirm that this is only a reporting problem, both machines
are actually running at higher speed than is reported when frequency
scaling (Cool'N'Quiet) is enabled in bios.

Although everything seems to work fine, it would be nice if someone paid
attention to this bug as it was a source of confusion for me (and
probably others) and there is little documentation.

[Bug 132403] Re: Cpu frequency scaling is limited to stock speeds

2010-09-01 Thread flar
It is highly likely the system is still overclocked, ubuntu is just
reporting the wrong speed.

Just to be clear, on my AMD systems, frequency scaling does work if
"Cool'N'Quiet" is enabled in the BIOS, however the wrong speeds are
reported.
