    Tried to get OO 3.0 on my Ubuntu 8.10 machine last night (had to drop from 9.04 because of graphics card problems). None of the online howto guides would work :(

    I've done it on at least 6 different systems with 8.10 using this method - all are now running 9.04.

    That's the method which worked when I originally had 8.10.

    Then I upgraded to 9.04, had problems with the graphics so decided to go back to 8.10. I wiped the machine, installed 8.10 and now that method doesn't work. It doesn't list OO 3 in the updates. :confused:
