Good Point. Also probably why there were fewer downloads for Linux
than Mac. That surprised me at first.
Not all of us Linux users settle for their distro version. There have
been a few comments about how certain distros tend to "break" OOo in
customizing it for their release. I myself usually prefer the
original straight from OOo, although for now I admit I'm using the
one that comes from Fedora 9, but will probably switch later on.
In early 64-bit versions of Fedora, there were 64-bit released issues
so I needed to use the official release. In Fedora-8, I needed to use
the Fedora release because of an issue supporting java. Now, in
Fedora-9, I need to use the official release because of a bug relating
to macros.
To Andrew Pitonyak: There is also the issue of the NVIDIA drivers, which
does not seem to be a concern to the developers, although Ver. 10 is
supposed to address that problem. I hope so! I use ver. 8 whitch works
well with NVIDIA drivers, which I cannot figure out why ver. 9 does not!
