I got it working with potato after some trial and error ... this all sounds familiar. I installed JRE 1.1.7 in /usr/loca/java. IIRC the trick was getting the PATH setting right for the shell environment from which Staroffice was being launched. $ echo $PATH /usr/local/java/jre/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/local/rvplayer5.0 - MikeT -- Michael E.
