Hi all, I have a box that was a happy woody box before my wife decided she wanted to use it. So I pinned it at woody, added sarge to my sources.list, installed kde, openoffice.org and netscape (netscape is from a netscape tarball, not a deb). Now, when I login as my wife and start an xterm, I can run netscape no worries. But when I create an application shortcut thingy on the desktop and double click it, nothing happens (yes, I have set the executable correctly, I can copy-paste it into an xterm and it works). Openoffice doesn't work at all. No matter if I run it as me or her, on the command line it just says 'starting openoffice.org setup...' and does nothing more, using kde or icewm... why? Some apps do work from a kde shortcut (codebreaker is the only one I've tried). Help!
