Re: [libreoffice-users] starting Base - works for me
Hi, As I understand it, Mint uses the Ubuntu software center. The default LO install in Ubuntu does not include base. If the user wishes to have base installed, you would add that to the Ubuntu installation from the software center. If I install from a direct LO download from LO, I have all of the programs listed below in webmaster-Kracked_P_P's post. In Unity, there is a launcher bar on the left side of the screen. The top button on the launcher bar is called dash, which has multiple uses. One use is to show the installed applications. When I do an upgrade, I completely remove the old install using the terminal, and then do the new install in the terminal. I use the following commands (This is for the 64 bit 3.5.5.3 from LO): Download LibO_3.5.5_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz to the desktop. Right click on it and extract it to the desktop. This will give you the folder LibO_3.5.5rc3_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US Run the following terminal commands to install it: 1. sudo apt-get remove libreoffice*.* 2. sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/LibO_3.5.5rc3_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/*.deb 3. sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/LibO_3.5.5rc3_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/desktop-integration/libreoffice3.5-debian-menus_3.5.5-3_all.deb After this install, all of the applications below will show up in Dash. To add them to the Launcher bar, simply drag the icons for the ones you want to the launcher bar and place them where you wish to have them. I've never had any issue with opening any of the applications. I read several days ago that Unity is now available for Fedora and for Mint for those who would like to have it.

Re: [libreoffice-users] starting Base - works for me
Mint is where I originally found MATE. Then I looked into installing it with Ubuntu 12.04.
