We just installed the Linux binary (as downloaded from openoffice.org) for
1.0.3, and it's working very nicely so far. Ran 'install' (which gave a lot
of errors) then 'setup', and it works fine. Ticked 'KDE integration' and it
even put itself into the KDE menus properly. I'm about to try it on the
4.6.2 box as well. I'll let you all know if that works too.
