Installing OpenOffice 3.1 on Aspire One Linux

The newest version of OpenOffice was released today. An overview of all new features and improvements is available here. You can use the instructions if you're still using the pre-installed version 2.3 or already upgraded to 3.0 or 3.0.1 as described here.Uninstall the old version, but backup the custom icons first.sudo cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/openofficeorg-* $HOMEsudo yum remove openoffice\*Download the new version from an official mirror, selected randomly by the bouncer. If you're assigned a slow mirror just hit Ctrl+C to cancel the download and run the command again. The already partially downloaded file will be overwritten. You can edit the lang variable, en-US in this case, to your preferred language. A list of all languages is available here. Also note that the command below is split into two lines due to its length. Just paste both lines into the terminal at once to automatically join them. Alternatively you can remove the \ at the end of the first line and join them yourself.wget "http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/?product=OpenOffice.org\&os=linuxintel&lang=en-US&version=3.1.0" -O OOo_3.1.0_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gzExtract the file and install the RPMs, which takes a while.tar -zxf OOo_3.1.0_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gzsudo rpm -U OOO310*/RPMS/o*sudo rpm -U OOO310*/RPMS/desktop-integration/openoffice.org3.1-redhat*Restore the icons and modify a few files.sudo mv $HOME/openofficeorg-* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/appssudo gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolorsed 's/-1.9/3/g' -i $HOME/.config/xfce4/desktop/group-app.xmlsudo sed 's/org3-/org-/;s/%U//' -i /usr/share/applications/openoffice.org3-{c,i,w}*Reboot.
