I am installing the openoffice 1.1.3. But it wants some xorg fonts, etc. I have not yet seen any reason to convert to the x.org stuff. Since the openoffice requires some, maybe this is the time. I am afraid that when I move to the x.org server, fonts, etc it will break and take an inordinate amount of time to get X up and running again. What say you?
