What spreadsheet works in Slacko64? (Solved)
What spreadsheet works in Slacko64? (Solved)
I have Slacko64 running on a Compaq CQ58, with AMD E1. Booting from eiher DVD or Flash drive.It looks good and almost everything works; my aim is to migrate all data from Win 8.1, including spreadsheets.
Problem - Gnumeric cuts out instantly when I try to enter ANY data, by any means.
Open Office or Libreoffice would be good, but I cannot see any way to install them, or reinstall Gnumeric from another source (eg Pet).
Help?

Hi,
Could you try out .sfs file for Libreoffice from HERE.
These sfs files are for Fatdog64 but some of them work in Slacko64.
Worth a try.

I found the bug and the fix for gnumeric. Apparently pcre_info is deprecated and completely removed. :/
The above is a link to the patch to apply to goffice which I modded and applied.

Don't fear using older versions.
Gnumeric was working quite well in he past. I was employed for statistics in a big airline, and i can tell Gnumeric is a real clone of Excel. Don't fear using older versions.
Use older version of puppy too, to be sure they have been tested by a lot of users.
Some users feed back errors. Merci à eux.
Spread sheets in Libre Office or OOo are of lower quality than Gnumeric. Some calculation are even... wrong !

The look is nice. and it's free
FreeOffice is my second hand spreadsheet, when i am using Windows. The look is nice. and it's free, just some mails. Not a problem.
In the back of the debates, Puppy will exist by being different from big ones.. offering the just needed for most of users.

How do I apply the patch? Paste it into Geany then execute it or is there a more elegant or effective way?
