Thank you for your help. First, take a look at the Installation_Guide.pdf, in the install.tgz. Here is the general method for Linux, if you have the downloads from OOorg mirrors. If you have Mandrake rpm use the Package Manager: From the directory where you uncompressed ...install_es.tgz: (need approximately 250 MB free disk space) as root:# ./setup -net (install to /opt/OOo101/) now, change to /opt/OOo101/ as user:$ ./setup (install to /home/user/OOo101/) pick the Workstation install. Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes. Works fine on Mandrake. Richard. http://es.openoffice.org Regards, Oyaji __ The NEW Netscape 7.0 browser is now available.

Re: [newbie] Cannot install OpenOficce1.0
Hi, Here's a link to a page that has open office in rpm format! It works like a champ and is much easier to install. The links will install to the mandrake menus under "office." Download the file (you'll need to "save target as" from netscape) then just go to the console as root and do: rpm -ivh OpenOffice.org-1.0-5.1mdk.i586.rpm the link: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/243416/idpa/243416 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I cannot install OpenOffice1.0.
