Are there any packages built against xFree86 > available? until such time as other packages are made available, you can try what i have done in the past - installing OO despite having the wrong X server. this method has been successful for me numerous times: 1) download the pkg for your system 2) pkg_add -f openoffice-[ver] 3) pkgdb -Fu # almost all the xorg/xfree pieces have very similar names, so selecting the correct dependency is straightforward. only with XFree86-fontScalable might you have to make a choice between Type1 or TrueType. both seem to work, but with slightly different results (i'm not sure which is best and don't much care - but if you read-up on it, you should be able to figure it out). 4) start openoffice and enjoy. > ... or do you generally recommend switching to x.org? while xorg is now default on 5.3, what they will do with 4.11 is unclear (at least to me). either system (xorg/xfree) will work and both should be available via ports for the forseeable future. in short, it is a matter of preference (or features) -- and a decision which is entirely up to you. =] hth, epi > Sorry, to bother, thanks for your help! > > > Ben > > _______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-openoffice > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
