The rpm came from: ftp://sunsite.uio.no/linux/Mandrake/Mandrake-devel/unsupported/8.2/i586/OpenOffice.org-1.0/ and has nothing to do with gcc 3.1 which has absolutely nothing to do with the problem.
2. Yes I did execute /usr/bin/ooffice didn't you see what I said in my prior mail? 3. Yes I did try OpenOffice.org-1.0-2.1mdk.i586.rpm prior to the 1.0-5 and got the same result so I was hoping the newer version would fix it. NO GO!!! 4. Yes I said F it and got the version from openoffice.org and it works fine! -- . --- |o_o | |:_/ | Give Micro$oft the Bird! // \ \ Use Linux!!
