Re: Open Office 2.01 not working.

I took another go at it, uninstalled the RedHat version of OO, downloaded and
installed the RPMS from OpenOffice.org (version 2.0.1-1.i586) and so far they
seem to work fine. It does not setup the OO shortcuts in KDE that the RH
version does, otherwise it is fully functional.

The question remains: Why is the RedHat version of the binaries not working?

Tried both Arthur's and Thad's suggestions,

When launched from the console (/usr/bin/oowriter) there are no status messages
in the console.

I also tried uninstalling all oo packages and reinstalling only the basic
packages (without the language packs) to no avail.

OO is still exhibiting the same symptoms.

Any other suggestions?

OOO's version sets up the menus if you install the 
openoffice.org-redhat-menus rpm.
