I'll go ahead and do just that.  I'm in the middle of trying to make
sure my existing installation is OK and once that's satisfied, will go
ahead and start the process.

I had the hardest time finding a complete installation.  I went to the
OOo website and could only find links for 2.4, and I think I was finally
able to get a torrent pointing to 2.3.1 but no seeders.  I eventually
did it by backing up my Hardy "sources.list" file and replacing it with
Gutsy "sources.list" and then forcing.  I'm probably going to do it
again as I don't think everything is properly installed yet.


Patience yields far greater results than brute force or rage ever could
so relax......it's just life !!!
