Just for giggles, try this: rpm -e `rpm -qa|grep openoffice.org` (Those are back tics, not single quotes around the rpm -qa...) That should remove the old installation of OOo. Then go to the Openoffice.org2.0 installation directory (usually in /opt), cd to the RPMs directory, cd to the desktop directory, delete all the distributions you're not using and move the remaining one up to the RPM directory. Then try rpm -Uvh *rpm Worked for me... -- Stew Schneider WMMT's Dutchman at 88.7 in the coal fields, http://appalshop.org on the net On CD at http://CDBaby.com/Foot --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
