    Looks like it doesn’t work. There are no files for Karmic there, only older versions. Any other way to do this via ppa?

  • zinovsky

    These are the official PPA for Openoffice that will host Openoffice.org3.2 package sure will be updated soon, you can now add the ppa repositories and when the package will be available you can upgrade.[url=http://www.unixmen.com/news-today/716-openofficeorg-32-rc2-is-out-] If you want to install using the .deb package see here[/url]

      do I need to uninstall my current openoffice before installing this version (either via ppa or deb files) or will that be automatically done?

  • zinovsky

    Yes using both will upgrade the existing Ooo package.

    • Daniel

      So I don’t need to do an uninstall first?

  • Zinovsky

    Normaly not, but if you want to uninstall first you can do that before to install Openoffice.org 3.2 :), me latest time i tested Openoffice 3.2 RC3 when i installed the RC version did automaticaly upgrade my Openoffice.org 3.1.1 and worked perfectly

    it appears that amd64 packages are not available from PPA as when i did apt-get update here is the respond from server:

    W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ppa/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found

    E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

    • brunoqc

      I have the same problem. I hope it will be fixed soon.

    You’ve got “sudp” instead of “sudo” in there.

    I am sure there is potential for some kind of joke about being “PWNED” in there, but still, you might want to sort it.

    try with sudo apt-get install suite upgrade

Did you add the IP range(Not ip address) in your cacti.conf file? If yes, check your apache log files. You may find the errors. Good luck.

I have been searching for a solution to that problem too but with videos. I can’t see anyway to make VLC do this. And nobody can tell me how.
However, I did find a media player called Movist that does it. I will never understand why VLC, the best in my opinion, does not design this feature into their player.

it can be used to talk or chat through the internet,

it is using strong encryption.

but for example TOR is using some obfuscation because some countrys try to block all outgoing connections which can not be scanned with DPI

And the TOR Project is facing an arms race in obfuscation and encryption detection.
