Hi all, Abbreviated install guide for Linux : Download the tar.gz package. Unzip the package to the location of your choice from the console with : tar zxvf name_of_the_package A directory with the name of the package will be created. Within this directory is another one called "RPMS" Change to the root user, and navigate to the RPMS directory. Then enter, from the console : rpm -ivh openofficeorg-* OOo will be installed by default into the /opt directory. You can choose other directories with the additional parameter : rpm -ivh --prefix /my_choice_of_directory Bear in mind that if you install the general installation to the user home directory, OOo may not start properly if it can't find Java in the paths of that user (at least this is the behaviour at the moment, I don't know whether that will change with the beta) Also bear in mind that the RedHat menu entry rpm can not be installed anywhere else than where it is programmed to go by default, which means that the --prefix switch doesn't work with this rpm package Change back to normal user. If you have RedHat, you should have your menu entries made for you. You can start OOo from a console with : openoffice.org-2.0 (I presume, since I'm currently using 1.9) Et voil�. Well its enough to get you started, anyway ;-) Alex --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
