insert cd 1
use yast under load installation pick default installation then hit
escape
this will take you back to the main yast screen
from there choose edit installation and scroll down the list of choices
to commercial and hit enter. will should then see a list of the software
choices you can choose from. scroll down to star office english. if it
doesnt say staroffice50 then you can probably figure it out from the
description at the bottom of the screen. when it is highlighted i think you
hit the space bar. if your system needs other programs to be installed in
addition to the package to make it work properly a screen will
appear(dependencies) from their either manually check the files or simply
choose auto which will automatically resolve these dependencies and from
there you either press f10 or simply go back to the main yast screen and
choose begin installation.
after you have the uncompiled binary installed on your system you will
have to compile it(convert from source code to binary) in order to use it.
this is fortunately very easy just type sosetup when logged in as root. you
will have to supply the code that came with your distribution(it should be
on the white card that has your registration information. make sure you type
in all caps or exactly as it appears. if you've lost it i am not sure if it
is a generic number to all distributions or is specific for each
distribution but i suspect that it is a generic code. you could probably get
it on this list if it is the same for everyone. keep in mind that this is
only a 30 day registration and you will have to connect to the stardivision
site to get a code to use the program continuously.
its in my opinion comparable to word perfect and definitely better than
the applixware demo because you can only write one page with it.
