Hi Holm-

I managed to get StarOffice-5.1 (english ...) up and going by
following a mixture of 

http://www.serv.net/~mcglk/staroffice-install.html

and copying applicat.rdb off of a linux box.

1) My box FreeBSD 3.3-Stable with linux-base-5.2 (pre release version ;)

2) I installed mine using /net option:

me% su - root

# cd so51inst/office51
# setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /tmp/sv001.tmp
# ./setup /net

went through the whole shooting match

# cd /usr/local/Office51/bin

(edit soffice as per instructions on webpage above)

# mv Fun & More to Fun-and-More (as in webpage)

# cp applicat.rdb applicat.rdb.bad
# cp linuxapplicat.rdb applicat.rdb

# exit

me% set path = ($path /usr/local/Office51/bin)
me% setup

and then

me% soffice

Seems to work... it was failing complaining about the same problem
before I made the changes to soffice script and putting in the linux
applicat.rdb.

Could the patch given be for English language ones?  Any friends
with linux boxes who are willing to share?

Hope this helps.
S
