Hello Jonathan, I didn't know that the licence for X11 was prohibiting commercial or 'productiuon' use. AFAIK X11 is open source, and used as a windowing utility by various open source programs like OOo and the Gimp. Where did you find this restricting licence information? Anyway, I wouldn't bother to use OOo under X11 anymore, since ther is a 'native' Aqua version of OpenOffice.org 3.0.0 available. For the moment it's still a release candidate (RC4), that is quite operational yet, but next week or so the fully QA'ed official release will be made I suppose. You can download the RC4 directly from the OpenOffice.org website ( www.openoffice.org), if you're happy with the US English version (the site determines whether you have a PPC or Intel Mac) http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/?product=OpenOffice.org&os=macosxintelaqua&lang=en-US&version=3.0.0rc4from or you can find other versions at GoodDay http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/3.0.0rc4/ download the dmg and install as you would any other program on your Mac welcome and good luck -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua 3.0.0 RC4 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo Aqua 3.0.0 RC4 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to users@openoffice.org -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
