Where is Open Office?

2011-06-04 Thread Mike Flannigan

I'm a new Fedora user.

I understand Open Office is part of the core
distribution, but I can't find it.  In Add/
Remove programs Office/Productivity is checked,
but only Evolution is in my Office Applications.
How can I start Open Office?

I get the digest version of the list.

Hi Mike,

I assume you have installed Fedora 15.
Since Fedora 15, Fedora has drop the OpenOffice suite in favor of
LibreOffice (which is a fork of OpenOffice born after the acquisition
of OpenOffice by Oracle).
You can find the LibreOffice suite under the Office menu. If not,
try to search with the graphical software installer of even with yum.
E.g.:

$ sudo yum install libreoffice-writer

Best,

Thank you very much.  I'm downloading Libre
Office right now.

Yes, I just installed F15 64 bit on my 3yo laptop.
Had one heck of a time getting the internet to
work, but I finally got it running.

You'll be hearing other questions from me very
soon.


Mike
