WordPerfect 8
Hi everyone,
Has anyone here sucessfully installed WP8 (the free one) onto SuSE Linux
7.1 (with ReiserFS). I'm not sure if it's the fact that I am using Reiser, or
what but I can't get the silly thing installed (and I need access to wp
documents).
When ever I run the "Runme" script that starts the installation, it gets to
where it should launch the graphical setup tool, and then BASH reports that
linux/ins/wpinstg doesn't exist. However, Konqueror begs to differ, and so
does ls.
What makes this more interesting, is if I go into the linux/ins/ directory,
and try to run wpinstg directly _it_still_says_it_doesn't_exist_! I'm at a
loss as to what this problem is, but it certainly provided a good way to
waste an afternoon. <g>

BTW, I've tried both the RPM that came in my first version of SuSE (6.1)
and the tar.gz version from Corel's web site - I get the same result either
way.

Any ideas?

-Tim
