TJ, thanks for the reminder about that page. Although it's good to have a workaround, I'm not interested in going to all that trouble just to take a look at LibreOffice.

(I picked up the .deb from where several people said to look.) --Jean --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
