I have a bunch of Perl scripts > in /usr/bin and I can open the preliminary gui with > ooo-wrapper2.0 from the cli or "run" prompt. ok, this is, what I have in my /usr/bin directory: file:///usr/bin/oobase1.9 file:///usr/bin/oocalc file:///usr/bin/oocalc1.9 file:///usr/bin/ooconfig file:///usr/bin/ooconfigimport file:///usr/bin/oodraw file:///usr/bin/oodraw1.9 file:///usr/bin/ooffice file:///usr/bin/ooffice1.9 file:///usr/bin/oofromtemplate1.9 file:///usr/bin/oohtml1.9 file:///usr/bin/ooimpress file:///usr/bin/ooimpress1.9 file:///usr/bin/oomath file:///usr/bin/oomath1.9 file:///usr/bin/ooo-wrapper1.9 file:///usr/bin/ooregcomp file:///usr/bin/ooweb1.9 file:///usr/bin/oowriter file:///usr/bin/oowriter1.9 I should say, that I have installed version 1.1.5 and 1.9.129 (delivered as OOo 2.0 by Mandriva) and also a "original" OOo 2.0.2 :) Normally, when I want to start one component of these versions, I use the menu entries, but I can also start them from the CLI by typing 'oobase1.9 &' (without the quotes) or 'ooimpress &' and the program runs fine. The original version do I have to start from the CLI by typing 'soffice -writer &' and it works fine. > > However, choosing a file or attempting to open writer or > base results in a freeze.

When you're using base, I assume, that you're using then the 1.9.129 from Mandriva. My suggestion is, that you should upgrade to the new version (2.0.2), because I know, that there have been a lot of bugfixes. Mandriva uses still a developer snapshot, this wasn't a final version of the software. When you need some help for the install of the original version, don't hesitate to ask. I'll be happy to help, if I can. As you can see, I have the 3 versions installed and it works perfect for me. I don't have any problems. The original OOo is installed automatically in a different directory (/opt), so there is no harm with your existing version. Ah, I have another suggestion: Have you tried to upgrade your java version? I know, that the version, delivered with Mandriva is rather old, it's 1.4.2_09, I guess the current version, you can get from Sun is 1.5.0_06. And I know, that Base needs a very up to date java-version. So, this is also worth a try.
