Hello Steve, This X11 business is getting to be apita... I solved it by installing the Aqua beta version 3.0 of OpenOffice.org on my Leopard MBP Start from here: http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/aqua.html The download actually is here (for Mac Intel): http://download.openoffice.org/680/index.html I didn't encounter any serious problems with the OOo 3.0, but for production use, it may not be the best option: "There are no guarantees" as the site says. Which X11 version have you installed? I also had the problem that I installed a newer version that performed worse than the previous... Maybe a new Leopard update might come up with a workable version of X11... -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua Beta 3.0.0 (and older) 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
