I only ever install the "official" version and the quickstarter checkbox you refer to does not appear in the memory options my installed ver. 2.0.3 Dave - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you are familiar with the Windows version of OOo, you will know that it includes the "quickstarter" component. This component loads part of OOo at startup and provides an icon in the taskbar tray, from which you can start any of the OOo apps. The concept being that it should reduce the loading time when an OOo app is first started. Quickstarter is not part of the "official" Linux edition of OOo, but SuSE include a variant of it in their version. You will find it on the 10.1 disk(s).

After lots of flailing away I now have ver 2.0.3 installed and running correctly, I think. What is the suse version of quickstarter?
