Eventually got it installed on my older Fujitso/Siemenns laptop. The DVD1 did see the card but refused to activate. Yes I have the time but not the know-how to rewrite "bad" software. Centos software not as user friendly as I expected. Will now move on. Now busy downloading Fedora 18 Beta. Yesterday got a Linux Mag with a DVD containing Mint 13 KDE, Bohdi 2, Pear 5. Saw on the mailing list that Debian wheezy Beta4 now available. Will download and test. Have plenty to keep me busy. Thankyou for your time to let me have a look see. Regards JohanS.

libreoffice

CentOS 6.3, libreoffice-core-3.4.5.2-16.1.el6_3.x86_64, running kde I had a couple of documents up. From a terminal window, I ran soffice to look at a document I'd just received in an email*. Looked at it. Killed the soffice session... and the other docs closed, and libreoffice shut down. Anyone else seen something like this? mark * For extra measure, I know that I've put *.docx in system-settings->file-associations->applications, yet if I try to open it with a click from t-bird, it tells me it has no clue how to open it. What have I missed...?
