Is Your StarOffice 5.1 Running Slow on Warp?
Visit @Macarlo's StarOffice Area

Hi All.
Finally I can run fine StarOffice 5.1 on OS/2 Warp. I installed Java 1.1.8 and now this fine release, version 5.1a by Sun Microsystems is using 68% of my Pentium 200 CPU resources. The former version, 5.1 by StarDivision unfortunately consumes 100%.
 

I downloaded the new version (65 megabytes) from an alternative FTP site that was indicated to me by the computer guru Renee Senger because yesterday the StarOffice area on the Sun web site has experienced problems and any register (required for download) can't be performed. With my username and regular password I could make all that I needed but register for StarOffice download I simply couldn't.
I unpacked so51a_os2_01.exe quickly, smooth and with absolute precision by a simple click into FileStar/2. Created the tree for the install process I clicked the setup.exe inside FilStar/2 and the Setup started as you can see in the photo below:

When I started the setup the 5.1a Install encountered in drive H the StarOffice 5.1 directory and I'm forced to uninstall it by request as you can see in the photo below:

I'm supporting StarOffice since the first version because this suite runs exactly equal on all platforms. Using StarOffice you can manage a big web site on OS/2 Warp and can update it from Linux, Solaris, Windows 98/NT/2000 conserving the same code, including HTML 4. version 5.1 generates a more clean code (version 5.0 have some problems, generating dirty code and the webmaster is forced to depurate it everytime using a text editor for programmers as Boxer or MED. Using the enhanced StarEdit you also need depuration, but this task can be performed weekly.
