dunno about ./setup, but i had to make the big file i downloaded (so-5_2.-something-.bin) executable as bud says. then it installed happily. one installed, i can only run the thing as root - as a user it complained about not finding /usr/local/office52/user/sofficerc so i made that file world writeable and now it just fails to start w/o any error. thx ------------------------------------------------------------------ |Remy Indebetouw 303-492-5835 | |CASA/ARL, APS, University of Colorado at Boulder | |[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://casa.colorado.edu/~indebeto | ------------------------------------------------------------------
