Hi mrzenwiz, Thank you for responding, but I am lost after installing x64 for 64 bit. I do not understand:
tar xzf <the file you downloaded>, cd into the newly created LibO_* directory, then cd into the DEBS directory, run 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb", then cd into the desktop-integration directory and run the same dpkg command again. Is there a more simple way of explaining it? Thank you.
