Hello, For Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4.x), the X11 isn't installed automagically. You need to get it from the Tiger install disks. Do a Spotlight search on you Tiger install disk(s) for X11User.pkg You can install the package directly from within Spotlight, or go and find the package on the disk itself. When you download OpenOffice.org, be sure to have the Tiger version, and also chose between the PowerPc and Intel version (if you have 10.4.7 I suppose it's a PowerPC you're working on). Look here: http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/ HTH -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua Beta 3.0.0 (and older) on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo SRC 680 m241 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to users@openoffice.org -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
