There have been many changes in KDE and system and none in SO. So you need an RPM specifically prepared for this particular version for a painless install. If you had to add it to the menu--that is likely because you downloaded a bin package directly from SUN and that hasn't been appearing on menus since 7.0. Civileme

Re: [newbie] Why doesn't StarOffice 5.2 appear on KPanel?
A cursory guess: KDE 2.x underwent some massive changes. Obviously, the methods for adding icons to the panel changed. I'd say this needs to be taken back to the StarOffice folks as a bug report.

Re: [newbie] Why doesn't StarOffice 5.2 appear on KPanel?
Same problem here. StarOffice "used" to install itself into the KDE panel. In fact the installation still claimes it does that, but it doesn't actually work.

You can run StarOffice in konsole, go to directory and run ./soffice. You can make a shortcut to this link.
