rpm -Uvh RPMS/*.rpm RPMS/desktop-integration/openoffice4.0-suse-menus-4.0-9702.noarch.rpm

but i got the following error

file /usr/bin/soffice from install of openoffice4.0-suse-menus-4.0-9702.noarch conflicts with file from package libreoffice-3.6.3.2.4-2.4.1.i586

Need help!

the opensuse install dvd already installed go-office
a fork of openoffice

remove the already installed office first

yast2 / "add and remove software"
type "office" into the search
then use EXTREME caution in removing the default office

some of it might want to take half of the os with it
