Word Perfect works find in my machine. While I was in Redhat, had d/l it as .tar format. And it just installs perfectly in Debian too. And I have found a bug or something too. When I type the word "miniscule" followed by a space, wp8 immediately crashes and disappers from screen. I don't know if its a bug or something wrong with my installation. Anybody using wp8, please check this.
