Office
 
I have Open Office 1.0, and I also installed Star Office 5.2.
Now I have two scripts called soffice.
If I am su, and I enter soffice, Star Office starts.
But if I am dad@dad, Star Office nearly starts, but is an empty window, and nothing works.
In the process table I see two soffice.bin. If I kill them, things go back to normal.
Can I happily rename one script say as soffice_star, without messing everything up? Or are there dependent links or whatever?
Any comments?
Thanks, Peter

You can probably rename the scripts safely, but if you're worried, why don't you just create some new sym links that point to the correct soffice script? You can have as many sym links as you want pointing to the same script, so no worries there.

ln -s /path/to/soffice New_Link_Name

Thanks, I'll try that
