I can insert pictures from file without any problems, using Insert -> Picture -> from file ... Outside of oowriter, iscan happily works with my epson stylus sx130 scanner. In addition to fixing the cause, please also change this uninterruptable futex to a timeout or cancellable action, for a more gracefull handling of similar situations. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
