Hi,
I'm a new user of Arch. I've installed openoffice via pacman. However,
it doesn't work anyway.
Accoring to the Arch Wiki, I added 'OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome'  into my
~/.bashrc, but nothing changed.
Clicking at the OOo items in the desktop menu, nothing happens. Then
when I tried to run OOo from the terminal using command
"$/usr/bin/soffice", error info is:
-------------------
no suitable windowing system found, exiting.
-------------------

I just don't know what is the matter.
