Very insetering but what is the file name of say writer? If past installations are a guide then launching writer will bring writer up. Of course if there are other methods to install other than by rpm _Uvh openoffice* which does install open office then these methods would be includes in the test files. Since the readme files are devout of specific installation information one can only assume standard rpm installation is the correct procedure. This procedure has worked completely and fully in the past. In such installation procedure there is NO specific menu installation for ALL version of Linux only for Fedora and SuSE which is not my system.
