I am Linux Despktop user for many years.

I have used Open office my regular office work and remained satsfied to most of the time.

My base O/s is Ubuntu [ Currently using Lucid 10.04 ]

My System : Core 2 Duo , 2.93 Ghz / 2 GB Ram / 500 GB Hdd / Keyboard / Mice - 19 " TFT Monitor.

One of my friend suggested me to try koffice.

I have installed koffice using sudo apt-get install koffice. Installation went flawlessely except program links appeared only on logging out and logging again.

I have tried following 2 programs.

1. Kword [ Version 2.2.1
Using KDE Development Platform 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2)

2. Kexi [ Version 2.2.1 on same platform ]

I experienced strange issues..... which I thought to submit the community to find whether I am wrong somewhere or its just shortfall...

K word : [ for my word processing work ]

1. Cursor does not move in the document even if I press space bar. It happens on starting of line or inbetween any word.

2. I could insert the table but I could not audjust row / colum. Table widget just not available.

3. Open office document consist of table - row / colum - not selected - could not do anything. Long document [ above 400 Kb ] , its crawling.

With these basic issues, I could not test kword anymore.


2. Kexi :

Connectivity to mysql was flawless.

1. I could not find a way to create relation. Only possible way was to create relation using query.

2. Form - kexi crashes once textbox is drawn on the form editor.

3. I could not find a way to add subforms.

4. Command button action - I could not find the way to create action to create new record in the form.

5. querry module is incomplete.


With these basic issues, I could not test kexi anymore.


My basic questions.

Koffice - 2.2.1 is this a demo program or complete version ?

Can I use koffice for production use ?


What version of koffice is stable one ?

How do I install stable version of Koffice ?

Thanks in advance.

In my experience, KOffice2 is not ready for production use; I use it for a limited number of tasks where its speed and ease of use is an advantage and it has a lot of promise but, though it has a lot of functionality that 1.6 did not have, it still lacks some that 1.6 did have.

KOffice 2.x is currently officially not for production use.

Point 1 for KWord is actually a feature where KWord prevents the insertion of space where no space should be.

For the other issues it would be nice if you could report the bugs you found, so that we can fix them.

I would suggest you open a new thread to ask your questions. You can also do some google searching for Koffice Nokia n900 to see if there is any information on how to install it for your particular device already.
