David, OOo 2.0 runs fine on this sarge box with the stock kernel-image, 2.6.8-2-686. I had some install issues which were quickly handled by the mail list: OOo2 sarge backport fails http://lists.debian.org/debian-openoffice/2005/11/msg00250.html Your "hang" problem may be what I experienced. While OOo runs fine without a java runtime, it does hang the system /looking/ for that runtime. Just un-check the jre option in the tools/options menu. You will need the jre to run the openoffice.org-base module (database) and to use the wizards for creating documents. I later installed the blackdown java .deb as suggested in the thread above.
