Hi :) Yes, they do usually co-exist quite well but IF you start running into strange small problems THEN un-install one of them. Mostly it is only when OOo has it's QuickLauncher active as this sometimes prevents LO from opening properly. There might be other issues but they are rare enough that we haven't been able to pinpoint them yet. Data and files don't get destroyed or corrupted so don't worry.

LO (from libreoffice.org) and OOo (from openoffice.org) will happily coexist as they are both installed in the /opt folders. If not, just use synaptic. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
