I am very new to Linux. I have SuSE 8.1 Pro and it uses KDE 3 for a GUI. It also came with OpenOffice.org, which I really like.

My question is this....whenever I add a new user, do I have to do a workstation install of OpenOffice.org for each new user to be able to use it?

Any help is appreciated.

You shouldn't have to. When a new user first starts the program, it should auto-install for that user.

OK, it asks for a 'workstation install' when the new user went to use it, but I had heard that they need to walk thru a setup to use it first.

I'm just wondering what, if anything, I've done wrong.

Just for anyone's general use and info, going in as the new user and running set up will install the files necessary for the new user to go ahead and use Open Office.

Problem solved. Thanks for input.

I have installed Open Office on a 2000 server as a Network Server install and that is what it sounds like you did with the original install. I think that is why it is asking to do a Workstation install when a user goes to use if for the first time.
