I tried this about a week ago without much success. I could get=20 openoffice.org-2.3.1_1 to run but when I tried to open an .odt with=20 writer it hung with the following errors: (process:2307): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:2242: initialization=20 assertion failed, use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function (process:2307): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion=20 `initialization_value !=3D 0' failed (process:2307): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new: assertion=20 `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed I also tried openoffice.org-2.4.20080308 from the same directory.=20 That "sort of" worked - I could open files but the formatting was wrong=20 with lots of spaces missing. But 2.4 is still in development (I think)=20 so things like that might be to be expected. =2D-=20 Mike Clarke
