And I would'like use OOo2... If you want to use stable, you may install OOo 2.0.1 from Debian Backports page: http://www.backports.org/; however, 2.0.3 is really better. > I don't use KDE or Gnome, but XFCE 4.0.6 (on XFree 4.3.0, because the > target machine is a 900 Mhz with a Trident CyberBlade/i1 video card > (AGP, 4 Mo shared Memory, with very very few accel's...

Well, I use Debian testing, Gnome (sometimes KDE, too) and debian OOo 2.0.3 build on PIII450Mhz/256MB with no major problems ... > I folow theses steps : > Uninstall & purge OOo1 (with aptitude) > Download OOo2 tarball (OOo 2.0.1 Linux Intel French) > Unzip in /opt > Intall of Alien (in my distro, I have the 8.5.2 version) > enter in RPMS folder > alien -d *.deb && rm *.rpm > dpkg -i *.deb Once I installed native OOo 2.0.3 rpm's on debian testing using more or less the same commands - only unpacked the rpm's to a subdir inside my /home, and not /opt. It worked, except Writer crashed on opening large MS Word files with no error report. I was too lazy to get into it, so I just removed them and reinstalled debian 2.0.3 build.

You're granted to have dependency problems, when you install developer builds on sarge (i.e. 3.1). Last time I tried to install newer versions of applications on it and fix the dependency problems, I had to reinstall the system... > If anyone have ideas for me... My suggestion would be upgrading your debian to testing (etch) - it's quite stable indeed - and install debian 2.0.3 build. Maybe you'll not get the dependency problems installing developer debs from ftp, too - don't know, haven't tried.
