To install this type of file:
From a console window
cd to the directory where the s0-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin file resides
type ./s0-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin and installation should begin.
Hope this helps

"chmod 777 starofficefilename.bin"

This is from SUN:

It will be necessary for a chmod command to be executed to set read, write, and
