I'm running RH 9, which has a 1.02 version of OO. I've downloaded and successfully installed (I think) OO 2.0 RC1. It's located in /opt/openoffice.org2.0. It appears to have all the 6 folders & files.

How do I launch the app? Is there some sort of setup that I'm missing. I've installed on a XP box, and 2.0 looks very cool, I'd like to get it working on my Linux box.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,
Mark

Did you install the redhat rpm from the integration directory? This should give you menus.

I am not sure if the menu format has changed since RH 9. If it has, you will have to add it yourself. You should have a /usr/bin/openoffice.org-2.0.

I like using the keyboard, so I usually type ALT+F2 (to bring up run application) and then type openoffice.org-2.0 (Gnome completes it automatically).

I knew it must have been something simple - installed the Red Hat integration and it works great!

Thanks so much for your help,
