That is also what I used, and it works fine for me (on Ubuntu 10.10). You mentioned that it installs into /opt (which is does for me, too), but you are running soffice - do you have a libreoffice executable in your path (s/b in /usr/bin) and have you tried that? It's a shell script that sets up the proper execution environment to run /opt/libreoffice/program/soffice (which is also a shell script that runs the soffice.bin executable). If this is not how you're running LO, something else may be wrong with your installation that is beyond my scope of involvement.
