I've just installed LibreOffice 4.0.0.3 on my Centos 5.9 system. the previous version (3.4.x) was working fine. But 4.0.0.3 won't start up. When run from a terminal it prints:
no suitable windowing system found, exiting.
Is this yet another case of apps moving on beyond compatibility with the older components in C5?
Or any hints for making it work?
Thanks!

Ah-HA! that does the trick,... thanks a bunch!
Now I have LO starting, but the document (foo.odt) I'm trying to read (which works fine in LO 3.x on a windows box, both versions reading from the same shared folder out on the network) it claims is corrupt, asks if I want to repair it and instantly says it can't be repaired. Still works well on the older/windows LO. SIGH.
ah. looks like it's already been reported:

and the workaround may be to copy it to a local drive. funny how it has no problem with .rtf files on the same netowrk share. :(
