Hi, we need morer information, like what command you typed and what messages you got etc. Maybe the user you are using doesn't have permission to run the Installer? I think it should be some relatively simple problem like that, because all I did to install Staroffice was type in: soffice in X-win, and everything was installed pretty much automatically. gl echen "Delbaere, Tim" wrote:

Hi,

I am new to all this Linux stuff, and have now got my SuSE 5.2 all running fine with KDE. Last night I wanted to install Star Office 5.0 that came with an English PC Plus magazine. I logged in as myself not 'root' but I cant get the setup to work at all.

1st off. I cant run the setup from my Cd as it want it mounted on a local HD. So I copied it to my /dev/sda2, where I have Linux installed. Tried to install and it will not let me.

It was real late last night about 1.00 am so I gave up. Anybodu got any idea's. I must be missing something simple.

I also tried it straight from X, and not KDE.

Thanks

Tim
