my experience with converted RPMs are ... bad ... :( I prefer DEBs like Pavel's from ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org, but I am using Debian SID here ... ;) > How did you obtain the packages for installation under > ubuntu, Jean? Although I am not Jean, I found this via Google: http://diuf.unifr.ch/pai/people/broccoa/deb/oo2.1/all.zip. But I am not sure, if this is the 32- or 64bit version of OOo and if you can use the 32bit version on your 64bit system without any problem ... :( HTH Thomas. -- NP: Tocotronic - Gehen Die Leute
