Ok I finally investigated this.
The freezing was due to the embedded jpg images.
Basically they appear to be malformed...ie the endings are incorrect....on windows go-office it copes with that but on linux it does not.
If I extracted the embedded image with a hex editor it only partly displayed if re-imported...windows itself was unable to thumbnail it at all.
If I did the same with a good .doc and embedded jpg ie extract with a hex editor , the extracted image displayed 100%.
Examining the images showed header info that is normally at the start of the file was also present at the end so the source of these images is in question.
Hope that throws some light on the subject.

go-oo works nicely network printing with my DD-WRT firmware. I tried several versions of OO, and all failed.

I can't seem to get go-00432.sfs to show up in /opt with Puppy 4.31 I do have it set to load at boot and also tried renaming to go-00432-431.sfs
Mounted or unmounted, the sfs doesn't show up as an application no matter what its name is. I must be missing something.
***OK downloading from a different source now to make sure format is correct. Will post results if anyone interested.

My only encounter with the boot manager is either use the naming convention or select whats boots but do not mix the two....as you see it works well

Yes, loading sfs files with boot manager has worked very well for me. I may need to start over with this one and follow necessary steps with the correct download. Thanks

I hope to find help here.
Have installed (on full installation 4.3.1) openoffice-cutdown3-2.2.0.. Got a heap of missing dependencies - and surprisingly at the end a message
"No missing dependencies"
I can't even create a tiny test document. When trying to save the file OO freezes. Have to kill it via process manager.
Have installed afterwards jre-6 / help / missings / mozilla / pyno
with no succes whatsoever.
Any advice ??

oooh dear - I realized that I'm in the wrong thread. Did only realize some minutes ago that all conversation is about Go-OpenOffice SFS 3.1.1
sorry

I tried the sfs3 version in 421 and it works fine, except for one strange quirk:
When opening Writer a message comes up and reports "dict-fr.oxt does not exist". When opening Writer again, it opens without this message. Installing the French dictionary does not help any.
Any ideas how and where to get rid of this annoyance?
Did you get a fix for this wuwei/playdayz? I have exactly this same issue...
