Try "soffice" (no quotes, of course).
While I'm at it, I have been having a problem with my StarOffice 5.1. I
installed it using the /net switch. After the GUI starts installing the
files, I get this error:
error: invalid compressed (deflated) data for libsw516li.so
I retried a few times, but still the same error, so I chose to ignore it to
continue the installation. Everything seemed fine after that, even doing
the user installation. The problem comes when I start StarOffice. The
program loads, but when I try to start a text document, I get some error
message about abnormal termination then it shuts down. I can't give the
exact error there because I uninstalled the program.
Does anyone have any ideas? Could this be a simple download corruption?
Thanks for any help.
