Mike, you don't mention which version of Kubuntu you use, but I should be surprised if the standard method for installation on Ubuntu doesn't work equally well with the KDE GUI. In a terminal, cd to the DEBS directory under OOo and then enter and run «sudo dpkg -i *.deb» (without the quotation marks). This should install the package on your machine ; please report back and let us know how it works for you !... Henri
