I have a problem every time I try to open the openoffice text editor, the javaldx uses a lot of ram and then the system crashes… does anybody know how can i fix the problem?

After I type “killall javaldx” the problem is solved and openoffice text editor run, but I can’t do this every time the system crashes

Hi Martin,

Thanks for sharing your problem. Unfortunately, I have no experience with imagej, and I can’t help you. I recommend that you try reporting a Launchpad bug.

P.S. You can find your Kubuntu version by running “lsb_release -a” in a terminal.

I suspect there may be more to it than explained above.

I keep getting the ‘javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!’

although I have installed both openoffice.org and openoffice.org-java-common packages on, some version of kubuntu (8.10 if my memory does not fail me).
(I can’t remember how to check right now)

I’m not sure, but I suspect that the error started appearing after I installed imagej which requires a full java environment. It would not bother me, except for the fact that oocalc tells me that it requires java to read an xml file from one of the the new Microsoft formats that I’ve been sent; I suspect it still won’t be able to, but that’s a different matter altogether).

so there’s probably more to it, but I cannot seem to find it by persistent googling or otherwise.

anyway I would appreciate a pointer in the right direction..

cheers,

Martin
