If you have 3.0.1 you are running Ubuntu 9.04 (or lower). To install the .debs for standard OOo: $ cd <path to /DEB> $ sudo dpkg -i .deb Example on the first command: $ cd /home/<username>/<nameofrelease>/DEBS Should do the trick. You'll then find the shell to run the program in: /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice $ /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice Will start the program. You can also use that as the command if you wish to add a menu item in Applications|Office (note you can find the icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/) If you'd like to install the Ubuntu 3.1.1 version, then follow Javier's advise and install the ppa version.
