There's actually a patch on the Sun StarOffice website that will extend
the beta until June.

http://wwws.sun.com/software/star/staroffice/so6beta_patch.html

The problem I have seems different.  It's dying with a signal 6
(ABORT?).  Unless that's how the beta acts when the time expires.  I
would have expected a window to pop up saying it had expired though.

I'm not up on debugging linux proggies under FreeBSD.  Is there a linux
version of gdb that I should be looking at the core with?  The FreeBSD
native gdb says the core file is looking for libdl.so.2 which is
certainly there, and found via "ldconfig -p" but I'm not sure if that is
a furphy.

I've completely deleted /compat/linux and reinstalled from ports
linux_base-7.1_2.  I've stopped and restarted linprocfs and created an
empty mtab in /compat/linux/etc.  All of that seems to make no
difference.


Carl.
