Using shortkeys to search the internet for a term selected in a text editor/viewer running under Wine? the question asks for shortkeys, but i post this for reference, especially that i found the solution that works in the native text editors/viewers while asking for a context-menu search (askubuntu.com/q/216770/47206) |

Xfce power manager does not follow GUI setting not to shut down the display most probably i had no screensaver gui installed but somehow a screensaver daemon was active, i have just installed xscreensaver now where i see an option to disable screensaver. i'll see and report and eventually edit an answer or suggest an edit. nevertheless the xfce power manager is ridiculously inefficient here, even if the blank screen is a "screensaver" that should be reflected in the power options too. xfce is still far from the support and development of gnome/unity. in some aspects is worst than LXDE, but i keep it for its good looks |

Can Wine support Office 2007? what version of wine have you tested? what do you think about the regressions reported here? (appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=4992). have you met this kind of problem? |

Using shortkeys to search the internet for a term selected in a text editor/viewer running under Wine? @IgnitE: sorry for not noticing later: you said: solution, you provided is making me search inside wine. what is the solution you are reffering to? you mean the answer below on PDFXchange? in my case it opens my default Ubuntu browser, Firefox. It is an instance of a Wine text viewer from which selected text is searched outside Wine. |

Using shortkeys to search the internet for a term selected in a text editor/viewer do you know that the script does not work in Wine programs like Notepad and Office? i wander why and whether there's a solution to that! I would very much like to use it in Office 2007 that I recently managed to install. i would like to create a question on that but do not know how to articulate it properly: and it will be a duplicate in case an answer on that comes about here |

Can Wine support Office 2007? great, i feel i'll be needing that soon. in case you come about testing that feature with multiple wine versions that i mentioned in the other comment, please update your answer in the future. i'll do the same in case i am in the position to talk about that. i'm very happy msoffice in linux becomes so easy and a last reason to mess with the other OS is gone |

How do I use two different versions of wine on the same installation? could you elaborate more? this issue is very important and your answer needs more attention - but first has to be detailed. i have not tried it myself, but: ubuntu.igameilive.com/2010/02/… |

Can Wine support Office 2007? considering the possibility of regressions in wine, using different wine versions at the same time would be great: and playonlinux might be able to provide this (have not tried it myself but this feature surely deserves to be tested): ubuntu.igameilive.com/2010/02/… |

Can Wine support Office 2007? @efthialex: this asks for a full answer, especially considering that playonlinux might provide other interesting options, like using different wine versions for different applications at the same time (ubuntu.igameilive.com/2010/02/…), given that regressions are a big issue considering wine. i myself haven't tried this, and have not tried office2007 in playonlinux so i cannot post an answer, but could you? |

Is there an archiver for Ubuntu with a GUI providing multiple information during action? @Mik: indeed i will: but in fact i like /usr/bin/p7zip %F in thunar's custom actions: i just created the command "convert to 7z": but don't know whether that /usr/bin/p7zip was installed by peazip or not |

Can Wine support Office 2007? I have no errors or message errors whatsoever: I was referring to possible errors like the ones you report, which might be related to not following strictly these instructions (appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=4992) |

Can Wine support Office 2007? I have no error on saving as far as I can tell. See my answer with that WineHQ link - there seem to be a lot of errors possible outside the framework that is clearly stated there: no winetricks in order to install, and so on. fresh wine install is what i've used |

Is there an archiver for Ubuntu with a GUI providing multiple information during action? @Mik: yes, i did, it is fine ("7-Zip based" it is said) although not with so many details after all. but a good answer if you would bother to post as such, adding maybe some instructions on how to add it to context menu (thunar, in my case) so as to 'extract with' and 'convert with' |
