• Problems with LibreOffice Impress?

  - by kkp

  I am a big fan of Ubuntu. I have recently switched from Latex to LibreOffice Impress for PPT because it seems that with Impress you can quickly create slides. I am using LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402) on Ubuntu 11.04. I am saving them as .ppt format. However, facing the following problems. It is really frustrating and forcing me to use Windows/MAC just for making slides. Font is changing from Arial to TimesNewRoman specifically for Tables when I reopen an Impress presentation. Tables are stretched if I reopen an Impress presentation. Impress is not allowing me to compress them (the stretched tables) and I have needed to make a fresh table. Several other modifications are reverting back when I reopen an Impress presentation. For example, the "transparency" change to the borders (e.g., for rectangular shape). Arbitrarily Impress is crashing. It would be great if someone help me to resolve these issues. Thanks.

• Barrier implementation with mutex and condition variable

  - by kkp

  I would like to implement a barrier using mutex locks and conditional variables. Please let me know whether my implementation below is fine or not? static int counter = 0; static int Gen = 999; void* thread_run(void*) { pthread_mutex_lock(&lock); int g = Gen; if (++counter == nThreads) { counter = 0; Gen++; pthread_cond_broadcast(&cond_var); } else { while (Gen == g) pthread_cond_wait(&cond_var, &lock); } pthread_mutex_unlock(&lock); return NULL; }

• Powerpoint: remote pointing and slide track device

  - by kkp

  I think that this question may not be suitable for this forum. But I need your help. I am planning to buy a remote pointing (not only just pointing, we will be able to track the slides) device for my powerpoint presentations. I always use Ubuntu and powerpoint with libreoffice impress. I have been looking products on amazon, most of them are either for Windows or MAC. I am not sure whether they will work on Ubuntu. I think that at least some of of you have been using a device for presentations on Ubuntu. It would be great if you share one that will work seamlessly with Ubuntu. Thanks.
