My OS is FreeBSD > 3.2-RELEASE with the latest linux lib. You should be checking out resources for this. I have SO 5.1 working on FreeBSD perfectly (well, almost, but you can still use all the apps that come with it.. some of the features may not work as intended, though). Try these sites: http://www.freebsdrocks.com/show.php3?ThisArticleID=5494&start=1&search_category =8 http://www.freebsdrocks.com/p-howto.php3 http://minnie.cs.adfa.edu.au/Misc/staroffice.html I've also written an article about SO 5.1 for the FreeBSD 'Zine, but it won't be posted for several months..
