It requires you to have the linux rpm of xpm. I could only get Staroffice to work under my own home directory because of some weird permissions thing, even after I used that soffice shell script floating around. But as long as you follow the instructions on: http://www.serv.net/~mcglk/staroffice-install.html you should be ok.
