Hi,

I have installed OpenOffice on an ubuntu server installation which
initially did not have X or Gnome installed.  Right now X and a
(minimal) Gnome are working, but OpenOffice fails to start from both
the console and the Gnome menus. This is the error message:

> ooffice2

> locate libm.so.6
/lib/libm.so.6
/lib32/tls/libm.so.6
/lib32/libm.so.6 

Anyone knows what might be the cause for this? Is there a package that
still has to be installed?
