I've got 1 hour 45 minutes left on the estimated time for my install of suse linux and i'm only about 45% through cd 1. DAMN!!! I have a slow computer to fuck around with. I'll post again when it's done installing.

Yipee. It's installed and running. I've been fucking around with pingus and under a steel sky. I need some help though. Open office wouldn't install when i was on disc two so i figured i'd skip it and come back to it later, well, it's now later and I cant figure out what to do now. Oh, and open office refuses to burn to cd so that option is out. (damn drive, everytime i need it it stops working). It's not connected to the internet yet. Assuming i don't wanna use about 60ish floppies and can't burn it to cd, will i just have to suck it up and wait or is there some way to get it off the cd i got from the box, mabye using YaST Or some such?

You could attempt to copy the OpenOffice RPMs to your hard drive and install them that way. I don't know how SuSE packages them up, though, since I'm using Fedora.

I'll probably spend a few hours trying to find them tommorow.

Or you could just DL the official OO builds from openoffice.org. I've never used SuSE so I don't know if there is any form of automatic dependency handling. Anyways, get apt-rpm after stuff is set up- phong might help you with that, since I don't use it.

Oh, and the game is beneath a steel sky, not under. Anyway, I hate point and click games like this, since it is impossible to spot some of those 3px by 3px objects on the screen.
