Also thanks for the advice - but I should have said I run Windows XP64
(I know ... I also run Ubuntu 10.04 as a dual boot)

Libre promptly uninstalled Open Office in favour of itself.... (Oh

Why can I not have both? Oh well, back to Open Office fornow.....
Try

LibreOffice should not remove any OpenOffice rpm versions as it has a
different name. Here is an installation guide for Freedesktop,
Mandriva, RedHat and Suse that I posted earlier:
I agree that no beta should over write an installed version. As I
stated yesterday, I feel that no software should install over another
version unless told to be the operator. Anyone should be able to
install any number of copies without having to jump through hoops to
do so. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks for the info but I run Ubuntu 09.10.
