Hi Yannis, You did not say what version of OpenOffice.org you were trying or what Linux distribution, which can be useful information. Have you looked at http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/download_dictionary.html where you should be able to find a link to a Greek dictionary and the methods of installing. I have been using OOO on Linux for about two years and have no problem getting dictionaries.
