I have finally managed to get koffice installed. However, I am having two
problems, perhaps related: 

1. The test on kword flickers every few keystrokes. And the cursor flashes
with every keystroke. (In fact, this is the case with every application in
kde2. But it was not the case with kde1) 

2. kde2 in general is running terribly slow on my box. I can't imagine
that this is normal. Opening applications takes as long as a minute. It
takes around five minutes for kde2 to start running after the splash
screen apears. 

I am using a Supermac 600 computer (mac clone), and the processing speed
is 200 MHZ. 

I am running SuSE linux 7.0. I am using their binary version of kde2. 

I am also a newbie. 

Thanks in advance
