Hi. i just installed OpenOffice 1.1.2 from a package; i need to work with some PowerPoint presentations and it seemed the best way. It looked like the install went fine, but now i cant seem to actually do anything with it. When it runs, the initial screen comes up but if i select the "open" dialog box it just freezes. Some other options go a bit longer--i can choose "New->Presentation" and that pops up an AutoPilot window, but after selecting one or two things that freezes too. None of these give any kind of crash report. i did the install as suggested, and there wasnt anything useful in the README (i did try to unset SESSION_MANAGER as suggested--im running GNOME--but it didnt work). What do i do? And if i cant get this working is there some other PowerPoint thing I can use, or a PowerPoint to HTML converter? Thanks!
