Title: What Y'all Doin For A Spreadsheet?
Post by: maskedbeagle on December 20, 2005, 04:53:38 pm
Hi gpe people
Just wondering what you all do for  a spreadsheet - I was hoping gnumeric might be in the gpe suite, but alas no? Do you use hancom and install some qpe libraries or something else?

I haven't tried it but gnumeric is in this feed: [a href=\"http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/sfeed/]http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/sfeed/[/url]
That feed may contain newer or just different versions of apps you already have installed so be careful when using it.

GNUMERIC
I also installed gnumeric from this feed. When starting up it complains :

Code: [Select]
Failed to activate configuration server. The service org.gnome.GConf was not found in the acticvation entry list.
As result I cannot store personal configurations. Does somebody have a similar behaviour or knows how to get rid of it?

For the rest it seems to work. Should test the exel plugin which is the most interesting one when using it in daily business.

SIAG
I've also found that [a href=\"http://siag.nu/siag/]SIAG[/url] is available for pdaXrom. so it should also be compileable for the rest of the zaurus variants.

SC

SC itself should be no problem (also using the original X interface).

Some years ago I adopted sc with a fltk frontend for the agenda.

I think it also can be adopted for the zaurus .... (or somebody is willing to replace the fltk stuff with gtk  ;-)

Create a file called org.gnome.GConf.service on /usr/share/dbus-1/services with the following:

Code: [Select]
[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.gnome.GConf
Exec=/usr/libexec/gconfd-2
Log out and restart dbus (or restart Zaurus). This should solve the problem. Solved here
