Hello, Did you download the X11 version or the Aqua (experimental) version that runs without it? I suppose after download you installed it by clicking on the .dmg and dragging OOo to the Programs folder Assuming it's the version with X11: When you click on the OOo icon (in Programs, or in the Dock, if you dragged the icon there)... what happens? Does X11 start, do you get a 'time out'? What happens if you start X11 (from Programs/Utilities) before running OOo? HTH -- Guy using dutch OOo 2.3 m221 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo SRC 680 m241 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
