Hi folks, I'm trying to get OpenOffice 638c to work for me, but am having a real wierd-ass problem. When root, I can run 'setup -net' and everything appears to work OK. All the dialogs are drawn correctly and the install finishes properly.
When I try to execute setup as a normal user, it doesn't work right. I get the OpenOffice splash screen OK, then a large blank window appears and the installer stops. I don't get any error messages, just a large blank window. I can click on the "X" n the top right to close the window and I'm presented with a small dialog box with buttons drawn, but no text. I can click the buttons, and if I choose the correct one, I can cancel the setup. Now for the wierd part. I logged into my PC from work via ssh and was able to run the setup program as a normal user. When I got home, I could start soffice, but none of the menu text displayed. I got icons, but no menu text. I did not have this problem when logged in remotely, everything worked. Anybody have any idea what could possibly cause this? Has anybody seen anything like this before? In the meanwhile, I'm gonna remove OpenOffice, re-read the install docs and try again.
