Can Linux LIte OS be repaired
#6



Hello

Thanks for replying .

unfortunately due to a bug in the forum the most important part of my post was reduced to such a very small size that it was like a few dots ( When Writer is opened the Program Flash screen shows briefly then nothing ) if enlarged becomes
[/size]---( When Writer is opened the Program Flash screen shows briefly then nothing ) I downloaded the DEB files directly from the OpenOffice web site and installed them using the default  "Open " which is Gdeb on Lite 2.6 . I have two Netbooks . I installed the same DEB Package on the oldest one first and Open Office worked  normally . When I used the same method on the second one I found that when I tried to use Open Office all I get is a quick view of the Office first screen after which all I see is nothing - Searching on line I only came across one person  who had asked for help to solve the same happening . After suggestions of what to try came to nothing he cured it by reinstalling his Linux .Sometimes a small error deep in software is not easily located and fixed and in those cases it is sensible to just reinstall the whole program or in his case the whole operating system.There is a "Repair" option in Windows that tries to overwrite Windows and so remove any errors that have crept in . I was asking if the same could be achieved with Linux Lite to save having to reinstall Lite and my installed Programs . I expected a No or Yes and how to do it . I was not asking for Help to resolve the problem with Office as it was too rare an event for others to have experienced .Since my post I have found out how good the Voice Type engine used by Google on an Android Phone that I am now using Google Docs . Its good for me because I never was good at spelling words .I had been wondering if the upgrade to Lite 2.8 might overwrite the error that causes Open Office not to work for me .Colin [size=medium]
