I have just done the same thing, ie. Star Office 5.1 on Mandrake 6.1
No problem, its fresh in my mind :-)
First open the Star Office ( if you downloaded it) archive to wherever
you want it put
If you want several users to be able to use it run setup /net as root
otherwise just run setup as a user
Answer the questions which will be asked of you
If doing a setup /net you will; need to now log in as user
go to the new installed location ( /usr/local/Office51) by default and
find the bin directory
run setup from there, answer another load of questions
When done
start it from
/home/useraccount/Office51/bin/soffice
this should all work on a standard Mandrake 6.1
Hope it helps
