    Hi folks,

    I'm having some dramas with Openoffice in Fedora Core 2
    (openoffice.org-1.1.1-4) and I'm hoping somebody here might have some
    suggestions.

    The problem is quite simple. If I open the "Print" dialogue in
    OpenOffice and then click on Properties button to change printer
    settings, nothing happens. The Properties button depresses for a few
    seconds and then returns to normal, but no Properties window ever
    appears. It's causing me no end of grief as I need to make a change to
    the paper size in order to get envelopes to print correctly on my
    Samsung ML-1510.

    This bug has already been reported here:

    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=126267

    and it has apparently been addressed in Rawhide according to the bug
    report. The bug is now closed. However how does that assist us Fedora
    Core 2 users? I tried to install the Rawhide Openoffice RPMs but
    predictably got a heap of dependency errors. I don't particularly want
    to run the development tree of Fedora just to overcome this problem.

    Any suggestions as to how I might solve this problem would be greatly
    appreciated! Also I'd just like to say a big thanks to the guys and
    girls that have put so much work into Fedora. I am running both 1 & 2
    on various machines and all in all, it's been a great experience!

    Many thanks,
    Graham
