AS> ~myusername/.staroffice). This is how I did it (from memory): Extracted the tarball, installed with -net option into /opt (the "patch" needs it there, although you could edit the patch). Extracted the patch and installed it like the README said. Started /opt/StarOffice4/bin/soffice. It checked that I didn't have a ~/.sofficerc and copied some files to my ~ ( a tenth of the files it would copy without the patch). No problems whatsoever. If you want to try this, make sure, you don't have a ~/.sofficerc Good Luck, Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
