Hi,

I have just installed the LINUX-Version called SUSE 9.3, wich contasins
OO.2.0 . Is that really OO? When I tried to open former written
Documents with the extension .sxc I got problems, and the former
"Star-Office" Documents, which I could edit with OO1.1 without any
problems are no longer possible to open anyhow. OO2.0 writes Documents
with totally new extensions instead. Is that according to the Idea of
open Software? Or have I got a bad copy?
The version that comes with original SUSE 9.3 was in early beta state,
you
should upgrade to some of later milestones of OO.o from
your-favourite-suse-mirror/projects/OpenOffice.org
Yes, in 2.0 file format is changed accordingly to idea of open
software to
standardized OpenDocument format. Still, 2.0 reads and writes earlier
formats without problems, when you have problems, please upgrade your
application. Available milestones are also not final, so you can
encounter
another problems, but not so much any more.

It's also important to note that the version supplied with SuSE9.3 is
built by Novell "based on OpenOffice.org". They number it Version
1.9.79.2.3 which isn't an OOo version number. If you are having
problems with the Novell version, you should contact them first for
support. Of course, you can always dump the Novell hack and install a
copy downloaded from the OOo site. Then we'll know what you have and
how to help.
