Could there be some way to have it done from a OOo "sister" site/mirror?
You should be able to add the (Sun) OOo download site as a repository
to your package management system.

OK, tell me more about where to find this repository?
Where do I find this, and should I keep the Novell version
on Ubuntu, while I use OOo's site version on Windows machines?
Or should I make them all the same version.

What is Mono? Not up on the newer programming stuff
I am from mainframe programming days, like cost accounting
in COBOL, Fortran, and alike. Lost most of my C and C++ skills with my
strokes.

How would you define this and where would you look for the
latest non-RC versions? Ubuntu and Windows? I have been looking
at the OOo site. Also, I may be using OpenSuSe on one of my
laptops, since it works the best over other "Live CD" distro tests.
Where would it be best to look for the latest for that Linux
flavor? I may even change the server's distro if I find a better
working version for it.
Also any suggestions for Linux distros I can test with a
"Live CD" to see which one works the best for my
HP Pavilion zv6123 AMD64 Athlon laptop? Need to make sure
the WiFi, sound, USB/Firewire, Card-reader, and other onboard items
work. Right now Ubuntu, on my IBM P4 server has trouble
with the USB card and onboard ones as well [for some reason].
I need everything to work on the laptop[s] when I change over
to a 64-bit Linux distro from the 32-bit Win XP/pro. The
Win 64-bit drivers were scarce back when it came out.
