Ok, we're almost there and remember I know nothing about Ubuntu. go to
the opt/openoffice..../program/ folder and do
$ls -l
look for soffice and see if it marked as executable. You should see
rwxrwxrwx or something like that. It's the x's that are important. My
bet is that it is NOT marked as executable so you
sudo chmod ugoa+rwx soffice
now you should be able to run soffice as per the instructions.
