[geeks] OpenOffice released for Irix - No luck :(

I've just tried this... fresh out of the tar, setup tries to
open a window, but hangs (you can see the desktop bleeding
through the incompletely opened window).  BTW, my config is:
Octane w/Dual 195 Mhz R10k
768 Mb
MXI graphics
Irix 6.5.18

Any suggestions? Is there a non-graphical version of
setup/install?  I'd sure like to get this running!
