No - I had DTG installed then simply installed Freoffice.
Ok, I see the issue. It appears that Freoffice does not conflict with
Doucements to Go Viewer edition. However Documents to Go Premium edition (which allows editing of word or excel) will not install with Freoffice and vice versa. Hopefully this can be resolved.
Editing is enabled only for Document application the remaining are under work and basic editing capabilities will be enabled soon. The next upgrade should already have good number of new features in them in addition to fixing the bugs spotted here
Should the students and common people also get free computers?
The point is that by insisting on people having to use MS Office documents it is giving a license to MS to print money because there is no competition. MS owns the file formats and change it all the time to frustrate anybody who tries to make a compatible product. It has long come to the point where even MS don't know what their file format is but instead relies on code as documentation.
As for computers, there is a hugely competitive market for it - you can buy branded, unbranded, build your own. So your analogy is incorrect.
Notice how every month the price of computers drop and their capability increases. Notice how say 10 years ago the cost of the OS is about 10% of the cost of the computer, but now the OS (Windows that is) probably costs more than the computer yet the computer is orders of magnitude faster/bigger/better.
Thanks - but easy debian is soooo sloooow. It's also very unintuitive to me for some reason - I gave up after trying after 4 or 5 times.
**** I now read the link you added and will give it a try. I'm assuming what is written there works on Maemo too. If so, I will be a verrry happy person ***
I've installed gnumeric and abiword within easy debian and they are much faster.
You can run them within easy debain with LXDE or use the "debbie" command.
