Hi Darren, You probably have the google earth software with the .bin extension. So, follow these steps to install it:
Turn the file executable with the command: *chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux.bin* After this, use the ./ prefix before the package name to run it: ./*GoogleEarthLinux.bin* In your OpenOffice CD, you should have the .deb files to install it. Simply open a terminal and go to the directory where the .deb files are and type: *dpkg -i *.deb* To install the OO suite. A hug!!! *Vinícius V.
