Hi, Tks for your advice. I am aware of "make install 'packagename'' on /usr/ports/. Because I am=20 running FreeBSD 5.2 on a slow PC I tried avoiding installing OOo from sourc= e=20 code. It will take lengthy time to go through compile, make, make install,= =20 etc. I have experience on Gentoo running installation from source code. O= n=20 a slow PC it would be much earier to install OOo1.1 from its tarball. For= =20 the small program 'midnight commander', it took 30 minutes to complete bein= g=20 an example This is my 1st time installing/running UNIX. I don't have much confidence = on=20 myself even though this is not my first time installing OOo from tarball no= r=20 my first time using tar command. I have no idea whether there are diferenc= e=20 opertaing them between UNIX and Linux. Therefore I start to post. Anyway thanks again for your advice. B.R.
