I am not trying to INSTALL a JRE. I am trying to get OO to recognize the installed JRE When I go to Options Java there is no JRE there and if I try to use / System/Library/Frameworks... to point to the installed JRE OO says it is not a valid JRE.

Pointing to the same locationn on the G5 works fine and in fact OO found it on install. On the macbook it doesnt find a JRE on install

Don,

Why are you trying to load a JRE on the MacBook? OS X already comes
with a JRE as part of the install. You should not need to install a JRE to
run OOo.

I got an Intel coreduo miniMac last week and simply downloaded and
did the drag and drop installation of the latest OOo for Mac from the
porting page. Runs like a champ. The only problems that I have
encountered are a permissions problem with working with networked
file servers and adding a networked printer.

The permissions problem has a work around. The network printer problem
also happens on my Dual G5 box with OOo. I have an Apple Personal
Laserwriter NTR and it sits on the ethernet network via an ethernet to
Appletalk/Localtalk bridge. For some reason, OOo won't let me add it
and I can only print to the generic printer, but it works.

OS, OO claims the directory does not contain a valid JRE. When I use a similar directory on my Mac G5 (PowerPC CPU) everything loads fine.
