The only method to run soffice or writer is to go into the /opt/libreoffice/program directory and start from there. How do I get the Applications/Office tab populated? and why doesn't it work automatically.Howdy Joep, In the directory where you installed the *.DEB packages from you will also find the directory 'desktop-integration', switch into this directory and re-issue the same dpkg -i command - the menu shortcuts will be all setup for you.Peter HB
I never used the "-iR"It is not listed that way in the Linux install documentation, or it did not the last time I copied the instructions from LO's site.
