Actually I just downloaded the OO tar from the OO website giving me the
latest and greatest. I also found that the pre-built copy I had was too
old for my FBSD 5.1-Release. I've got it installed under Gnome2 and it
works great! Really impressed. Once I un-tarred the tarball, I simply
typed make, then make install. Worked like a charm. Links below:

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your advice and URL.
I agree with you that installing OOo1.1 from its tarball is quite simple and
straghtwards. I just want to know whether in Rome I have to do the Roman
way.
Now I have OOo1.1 downloaded but could not discover 'md5sum'
# which md5sum
# whereis
# locate md5sum
/usr/X11R6/bin/gst-md5sum
/usr/X11R6/man/man1/gst-md5sum.1.gz
/usr/local/share/python2.3/Tools/scripts/md5sum.py

# man gst-md5sum
does not provide much information.
Is it 'gst-md5sum' same as 'md5sum'
Kindly advise. TIA

Subject: Installing OpenOffice 1.1 question
Hi all folks,
FreeBSD 5.2
I installed the captioned OS from CD1 which is the only CD in my
possession. I tried to install OpenOffice1.1 but could not find it
# /stand/sysinstall
could not find it. Kindly advise whether I can install OO.1.1 direct
from FBSD website OR I have to start from its tarball to be downloaded
from OO website.
If from FBSD site, kindly advise how to make it. Pointer would be
appreciated.
TIA
B.R.
Stephen Liu
