Hello Guy,

Officially, versions of OpenOffice.org for Panther (OS X 10.3.x)
stopped with OOo 2.1 (although I've seen messages saying 2.2.1 would
be the last to run on Panther (see Maho, 17 July on mac list).
see: http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/x11-103.html

So I'm afraid a version 2.3 (not yet a stable release - did you get it
from good-day?) won't run on your G4 with Panther.
Solutions are:
• make a Linux partition on your G4 and run a Linux PPC version of OOo 2.3
• upgrade Panther to Tiger
• stick to v 2.2.1 (or 2.1)
• NeoOffice (not my favorites...)

I suppose that for Panther you'll always need to use the X11 windowing
program (the Panther version is available from the Apple website -
check that it's for Panther 10.3.x!). The Aqua version of OOo will
probably be build only for Tiger (PPC and Intel versions).
