What are the minimum requirements?

OpenOffice.org 2.0 requires one of the following operating systems:

  • Microsoft Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2 or higher), Windows XP or Windows 2003

  • GNU/Linux Kernel version 2.2.13 and glibc 2.2.0 or newer

  • Mac OS X 10.3.x (10.3.5 recommended), Mac OS X 10.4.x, plus X11

  • Solaris version 8 or higher

More operating systems will be supported in the future.

Some OpenOffice.org features (wizards and the database component) require that the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) be installed on your computer. Although OOo will work fine without Java support, some features will not be available. You can download the latest version from http://www.java.com.
