Here's what I use to visualize my $PATH

(I put /opt/trinity/... before the main executables because for a while at least, some
Trinity programs were named the same as KDE programs.)
Unfortunately, OpenOffice is no longer available for my distro, so I can't test if it
works or not on my machine.

It could be some problem with $PATH. I see firefox crashing/hanging when

(some day I'll need to figure that out, 'caus it works on my desktop where
I have fiddled with $PATH some time ago)

>ktop.org I will eventually try just reinstalling my OS and
everything, to see if
that might resolve it. I suspect that I might have to downgrade to
Devuan Beowulf. I did have OO running on Beowulf, but that was a 32-bit
machine, and the saved packages don't match my 64-bit laptop, and now I
can't find older versions of OO in 64-bit.
So now I have to try to find some combination of OS, preferably Devuan,
and an office program that are compatible for my machine. The machine
itself is practically brand-new, runs well, I need to resolve several
issues, of which this is the most important.
Hi Bill,
To save yourself some time, try the OS/OO combinations in a VM. That way
you'll at least have a [semi] functioning machine until you hit the
jackpot.
I did give LibreOffice a try, too, but now not
even that will run
properly.
LO should run perfectly fine on any recent Debian based derivative. So,
that's a bit worrying and implies that you've broken your current
install. Maybe first try loading what you want [Devuan Chimaera 64-bit?]
into a VM (to get a perfectly clean copy), make a VM backup*, and then
re-try installing OO, LO, etc.
