Thanks for the tip, I deleted the glibc2 libraries that I installed from the StarOffice CD and tried the installation again. The same thing happens, the installation screen freezes up after clicking on Next at the User Data Entry screen. Could this be related to my video card? (My next question) My video card says S3 86C775 on the chip, but SuperProbe says its an Intergraphics IGA-1682. The XF86_S3 also says it's not a real S3. I am able to use it with the XF86_VGA16 driver, but I have very few colors, especially in Netscape. Is there any way to get more colors from it, or should I get a new video card?
