Re: [libreoffice-users] Changing paths in LO

Hi :)  

I'm guessing that you make sure the Windows partition is mounted when you try to edit the paths?  
Although if it rejects a mounted Linux partition that you know is already mounted then it kinda 
points to that not being the problem.  

Easiest way to check a partition is mounted is just to open your file-browser and see if it's 
listed in the "Places" sidebar.  I often switch between "Tree" and "Places" in there.  Each has 
their own advantages at different times.  If you are using Gnome or something then it tends to have 
a "Places" on the top-taskbar or you might be able to see the drive in your "My Computer".  

Regards from 

Tom :)
