Now what happens if you run:

libreoffice

does libreoffice start?

23

unfortunately not

nigel@nigel-AOA150 ~ $ libreoffice
The program ‘libreoffice’ is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install libreoffice-common
nigel@nigel-AOA150 ~ $

24

OK, I’m afraid you’ll have to go back to 3.5 for now … run:

sudo apt-get remove --purge libreoffice*

then:

sudo apt-get install libreoffice-writer libreoffice-calc libreoffice-draw libreoffice-impress

[EDIT]

Keep an eye on this thread though … as soon as I get the chance I’ll try work out how to get LO4 onto my other AA1 that’s still running Peppermint 2

many many thanks :slight_smile:

it is now installed - i will monitor for any further updates from you

i wish i understood more about linux as would try on an old laptop but would be asking questions every 5 minutes!

Questions are what we’re here for :slight_smile:

So ask away … only one way to learn, right ?
