Unless he used this: ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/linux/openoffice.org-cs/devel/680/SRC680_m145/Build-1 filename: OOo_SRC680_m145_LinuxAMD_install_en-US_rpm.tar.gz as seen here: http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2005-12-09T20_01_27.html Please note these are "very-pre-beta-do-not-use-it AMD64 build". It works with unstable without ia32-libs for example. wget ftp://ftp.linux.cz/... (91M download) tar xzf OOo_SRC680_m145_LinuxAMD_install_en-US_rpm.tar.gz cd RPMS fakeroot alien --to-deb *.rpm sudo dpkg -i *.deb /opt/openoffice.org2.0/program/soffice It works here (ssh on a P4 EM64T). I could start OOo, type a few words, change font and exit without a crash. Of course, you can expect problems.
