[techtalk] StarOffice and Gnome installation issues

It runs on my old laptop, a P90 with 40 MB of RAM, with KDE/kwm.  It is
quite slow loading or starting an app, but otherwise runs fine.

I've used it simultaneously with Netscape in the above environment.  It
still works.  I prefer WordPerfect 8 for a word processor, and it is *much*
faster, but I still haven't found a better spreadsheet for Linux.
