Hello all,    I just installed the Open Office on my brand new iMac.  When
I
attempt to initialize the Open Office Program, I get this prompt:
 bash-3.2$
I then do not see anything elase opening.  I then close the prompt, and
then
I click on the OpenOffice again, then it takes about 90 seconds to
initialize.    Is this normal ?   Please help,  and thanks in advance.


Hello Roger,

The prompt is in the xterm window of the X11 utility that OpenOffice.org
needs to run on your Mac. The X11 or XQuartz that comes with Leopard (OSX
10.5.x, your operating system) is different from the X11 that runs on Tiger
(the previous Mac OS 10.4.x) and it isn't yet entirely bugsfree. The
developers are busy with it, and you get updates with Apple's automagic
Software Update. There are more regular updates available at
http://www.myriad-online.com/en/products/galerie.htm
that may (or may not) work better with Leopard and OpenOffice.org

Don't you mean <http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/Releases> ?

Also, if ti still doesn't work , try Shaun McDonald's hack. It worked for me.
