Re-reading Chelli's post I realized that we may still be a few weeks aways from a working version.
I install gnumeric from fresh. I just upgraded to 2008Os and slowly inputting my buddy pgms one at a time. As in previous post, the only problem was my maemo.hackers was not installed. Other than that I encountered zero problem.

quoted from Rebski's post,
____________________________________________

Just as a guide, the list may not be complete:
Cells formatted as Date: OK
Cells formatted as Text and containing Text: OK
Cells formatted as Text and containing Numbers: Scientific Notation
Cells Formatted as Currency: All shown as Zeros
Cells Formatted as Numbers: All shown as Zeros
Cells Formatted as General and containing Numbers: Scientific notation.

I dont have Currency in my spreadsheet. My spreadsheet is NOT small, it has 3600 x k Cells, contains mainly text and numbers. Dates I entered as text. No formula are used. I only use " ' " this formating character and the whole spreadsheet upgraded from 2006Os to 2007Os now 2008Os with no problem. I am sorry for what you guys encountered. Well, BTW, I do not save into gnumeric formats. I always save to Excel and load from Excel format. My experience, it loads 3X - 4X faster from excel then from gnumeric.

This is the 2nd time I installed it, the previous time see thread #28, also has no problem.
