Were you by any chance su'd from your usual login? If so, connection :0.0 is already in use. The only thing I've found to work is to run "xhost +" prior to calling su. JimW C Hamel wrote:

Use sux instead of su. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson

Or you can use sux and that will allow root to use the X server. Marshall

JimW <SNIP> I did finally get it installed... but I find it curious that their installation instructions have to be so heavily edited where SuSE is concerned.

"heavily"? They forgot to mention how to get past X authentication. That is one item (which I don't fits anyone's definition of 'heavily') and it is exactly the same in any linux distribution except the ones that turn off authentication. BTW, another option besides 'sux' is to run "kdesu setup -net"

Interesting..... I installed OO1.1.1 on 9.0 yesterday and used the same procedure I've been using since SO 5.2. 1) As root, run ./setup -net 2) As user, run: /opt/OpenOffice1.1.1/program/setup Done Has worked the same every time. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
