Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 3.4.3 on Ubuntu 11.10 (Unity 3D)

Hi :)
For the last several releases of Ubuntu, ever since the 9.10, i have found that the "Try it" option 
does NOT work on any machine that i have tried.  What does seem to work is to 1st click on install 
but at one of the first screens there start clicking on the "Back" button until you get back to the 
screen that offers the "Try it" option.  Then "Try it" works without hanging the system.
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi,

All cd's and burners are not created equal. I've had several instances where a live Ubuntu cd would 
not work on one computer, but worked perfectly on another. If you burned it the computer you are 
trying to boot it on, it should work. If you have both a burner and a player, try it in both. If it 
was burned on a different player, please burn one on the computer you are trying to boot from, and 
then try booting from the burner drive.
