[newbie] KOffice Problem

[Graham Watkins]

Hello Folks,

A little problem - I just installed KOffice 2.01 over the top of the
version that came with Mandrake 7.2. This appeared to go OK but now it
won't start.  When I try to start it, I get the revolving disk icon on
the KDE taskbar but it then disappears and ... er that's it.

All the files seem to be installed- not that I'm an expert.

Do I need to configure, or otherwise tweak anything to get a result?
