Hi Rohit,
This is how I installed StarOffice 5.1 from Chip CD on my Home PC.
As root :
$ RPM -ivh <staroffice rpm file>
It got installed in /opt/Office51
Then as per the documentation login as a normal user ( I logged in as rajesh ).
Then
cd /opt/Office51/bin
./setup
This will install StarOffice files in ~/Office51.
Now run ~/Office51/bin/soffice.
That's it. Nothing was mentioned about /net option etc. By default the RPM installs it
as /net I think.
****** Since I have not used StarOffice on Network. I am unable to comment on that.
By the way I am using it in KDE. Today I will try to run SO on WindowMaker and Gnome
and
then Let you know.
Hope this helps.
