Hello everyone, I have tried thus far a few times to get star office installed on the Debian 'hamm' distribution. The readme file states that the libc6 libraries needed are already there. I followed the instructions to verify that the library files exist on the machine and they do. I ran the ./setup /net as root to eliminate any permission problems and allow for user installs only to get an error something like, "cannot start X server". So I started X and ran the ./setup /net from the command window. I saw a StarOffice screen then the system locked up and had to be shut off without a shutdown. Next I tried to install the libraries anyway using the . ./soprep script and was prompted to force the install. I ran ./setup from the command line again and the same x server error came up. I did not start X and try the command line again.
Does anyone use StarOffice and is there something simple that I'm missing? -- Danny R. Gray Research Technician Department of Pathology UNC-CH School of Medicine
