Hi all, Thanks for the reply, and help.
I do not know the answer to the question, as yet. All i know is that unlike what I am used to, some kind of user interface comes up, where one part is a large box that incite dropping docs into to open - I tried that yesterday but still got an attempt to open a chart for a switer doc. There are on the right, if i remember correctly, shaded out menu entries for swriter, scalc, sdraw or libreoffice equivlent - but i will need to further investigate. I just typed, to install libreoffice-gtk, one would expect for all components of the suite to be installed - right;) All the best.
