I have been able to install Star Office just fine with my Java
installation (from the RPM from Sun).  It does seem that people who
downloaded the suite had more problems than those who had it on CD.  I
used a CD that I had gotten for free from some Sun reps, so I haven't
tried the download version.  You might also try OpenOffice.org's package.
It's virtually the same thing, since it's all pretty much based on the
same packages.  From what I can remember between the two, I couldn't
really tell the diference.  I downloaded that the other day and got it
installed with no problems, Java and all.

Good luck,
