http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-openoffice-3.0.0-on-ubuntu-8.04 Note: <quote> This guide shows how you can install the new OpenOffice 3.0.0 office suite on your Ubuntu 8.04 desktop. Your current OpenOffice installation will not be removed unless you uninstall it with Synaptic or on the command line, so you can run both versions in parallel if you like. </quote> Don't uninstall 2.4.1. After "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" skip directly to "2 Creating A Launcher". The instructions before that are only if you have uninstalled (U)OOo. Note that there are 2 pages of instructions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
