I tried the installation and all went very well. At least so it seemed.. Running the officesetup I got errors like "ELF binary type "0" not known" I started the program under a /compat/linux/sh shell and still got this message. I branded the binaries.. no luck. I started them normally (under fbsd) and nothing happened at all. So, I guess the package won't run under fbsd. -- dick -- http://www.nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.9 ++ Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja
