Hi: I purchased openoffice build 641 from Cheap Bytes. I tried to download a couple times, but just too big. Put the CD in and - - - realized, I've never installed from a third-party CD. So, on the CD, there's a folder that says "binaries", and in the folder, there's one "install641C_linux_intel.tar.gz". So, anyone tell me what I do from

I have openoffice 641b on CD, though it's from a different distributor. Mine came with its own setup program, which on my disk was located in a folder called /Linux/install. Try extracting the tar.gz file, it may be in there. I believe the advantage of binaries is not having to compile them yourself - they're more newbie-friendly. *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 1/9/02 at 7:58 PM tom poe wrote: there?

Specifically, what's advantage of binaries over src. install? I have both on the CD. Thanks, Tom
