[PLUG] Ubuntu with OO 2.0 beta (Was Accessing files on a local network)

[William Leake]

John,

Have you had any luck getting OO 2.0 beta (1.9.79.2) installed?  I
installed it right from synaptic after adding the backports repository
to my /etc/apt/sources.list.  Here is a copy of mine in case it helps:

deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 5.04 _Hoary Hedgehog_ - Release i386 (20050407)]/
hoary main restricted
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary main restricted

## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary-updates main restricted
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary-updates main
restricted

## UBUNTU BACKPORTS -- I added these two
deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-backports main universe
multiverse restricted
deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-extras main universe
multiverse restricted

=======================EOF===============================
The backports repo gives some nice updates.  I have the OO beta and gaim
1.3.1. Both from the comfort of synaptic.  Yes, I do know how to use the
CL - but that sure is not the easiest way anymore.

HTH,
Reid
