oops. this is nothing very startling. Its just that the desktop shortcuts and perhaps some gnome integration isn't there. Don't worry too much.
Its easy to create a shortcut for any program by creating a app-name.desktop in /usr/share/applications. Refer existing ones for help.
Can you please explain the process?
The app-name.desktop will appear in your gnome menu.
I did not understand exactly.
If you are the gui guy then System > Preferences > Main Menu should allow you to add the missing entries, assuming you are using gnome.
ok I will try that, I only hope that I dont need to get in the sudo mode because then my screen reader will have a bit of a problem.
All said and done try using the openoffice-gnome package which contains all the necessary files.>
any url to download that will be very nice. regards, Krishnakant.
