Hello.
I just installed SlackWare 12.1 and tried installing openoffice 3.0 .
I downloaded OOo_3.0.1_LinuxIntel_install_wJRE_en-US.tar.gz from the site and ran into some trouble.
tried ./setup as root and got the following:
Quote:

Extracting ...
./setup: line 246: rpm2cpio: command not found
cpio: premature end of archive
find: usr: No such file or directory
basename: missing operand
Try `basename --help' for more information.
/dev/pts/1
Error: Failed to extract the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) files. (exit code 7)

and so I got jre-6u13-linux-i586.bin and put it into /usr/local/java
ran bash jre-6u13-linux-i586.bin and all was well and it said done.
tried ./setup -j /usr/local/java/jre1.6.0_13/bin/java and got the following in the console:
Quote:

the setup screen came on and I chose my preferences and clicked next.
the following output came to the console:

and the install window shows installing and it hangs on "openoffice.org-ure-1.4.1-9379.i586.rpm "
what am I doing wrong?
I need openoffice to view/edit *.docx files I wrote in class using MS office 2007.
