Thanks to all who replied to my question regarding the slow start-up of
StarOffice on my FreeBSD 3.0 system.
To quickly summarize, some had no problems, some had the same slow
start-up
times as I.
Greg Lehey suggested it was looking for a nonexistant sound card...
I will surely check out the config to see if it is, indeed, looking for
a sound card or something. If I find out anything, I'll post it.
regards,
Jim Durham

You've gotten farther than I did!! I still can't get past the
"can't load library xxxxxxx.so" messages.
