OroborOSX Called Me a Hack

[nlubofsky]

I'm trying to get OpenOffice to run on my iMac and I think I'm pretty close, but I'm stuck on this one thing.

I downloaded the latest version of OpenOffice and it came with:

OpenOffice.org version 1.0.3
StartOpenOffice.org version v1.0b8
OroborOSX version 0.8b2
XFree86 version 4.2
XDarwin version ???

I am running with:

Mac OS X version 10.3.3

I installed OpenOffice and tried to run and I got the message:

Fatal server error:
Could not find keymapping file USA.keymapping.

I searched around on the web and found out from the trinity.neooffice.org website that I needed a newer version of XFree86 for my Mac OS X. So I installed XFree86 version 4.4, but I still got the same error, which led me to realize that OroborOSX was still using an old version of something. I discovered that there is an XDarwin.app inside /Applications/OroborOSX-Folder/OroborOSX-v0.8b2.app/Contents, so I replaced it with the newer XDarwin.app from /Applications. Now I get this error:

OroborOSX: XDarwin has not initialised correctly. Aborting.TRACE3: MakeAlertWindow (XDarwinFail)

That's probably not enough to go on, so I included all of the console.log messages I get (when trying to launch OpenOffice) below.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Aha! I was so focused on what version of XFree86 I had that I failed to notice I wasn't running with the latest version of OroborOSX (v0.9). It's working now. Thanks so much!!!
