A number of people commented that StarOffice works quite nicely under FreeBSD, and it does...except for one problem that must be happening here only because no one mentioned it. Any time I start a StarOffice application, it "pauses" for 3 minutes before it comes up, then runs fine. I posted this before, but with the interest in the current thread, thought I'd try again. My guess is that it's looking for something, a sound card (using a SB 16 here) or a network connection or whatever and it has to time out before it comes up. Anyone else having this problem? -- Jim Durham <Television Engineer-Unitel Mobile Video, Pittsburgh> <Computer Consultant/Hobbyist> <Amateur Radio: W2XO> <Web:http://www.w2xo.pgh.pa.us>; <Packet:W2XO@W2XO.#SWPA.PA.USA.NOAM>
