I thought to warn people here, since many have had Ubuntu issues related to 
LibreOffice.

I thought someone should let the people know they might want to avoid upgrading 
to 11.04 for now.  There are enough issues with it, as I have read, that should 
make the "average" Ubuntu user wait for a bit before going to it.

It seems that there has been some issues between LO and Ubuntu 11.04 reported 
already.

Actually Ubuntu seems to want you to run 32-bit even though you have a 64-bit 
system.  That is what their web pages seem to say.  So since there has been some 
issues with it and LO, and now my found issue with monitor resolution being 
unsupported by my monitor even though 10.10 did not have it . . . . .

I thought to give another case for the LO users to avoid 11.04 64-bit for 
awhile.



Hi :)
I get the opposite impression of Ubuntu.  It seems 'they' want me to use 64bit 
versions when the 32bit has been a lot easier for me.  I think the 64bit repos 
are a lot better now so the slight performance boost might be worth it.  I've 
still only got 2Gb ram but that's not an issue any more :)

I thought it was kind to alert people that there might be issues for some people 
with the 11.04 that are not a problem with earlier releases such as the last 
LTS.  I have 1 machine that needs either 10.10 or 11.04 in order to run some 
stupid new wireless dongle.  The old one worked but we upgraded to the new one 
because it was new & more expensive and therefore must be better [sighs deeply] 
[shakes head].  Anyway, most of the rest of the machines can stay on 10.04.  The 
11.04 works fine on my virtual machine (in gnome) but i haven't really tried out 
much stuff, including LibreOffice, yet.

So, thanks for the warning :)
Regards from
Tom :)
