Typo alert!!
I should've typed /usr/lib  :(
However, I've checked /etc/ld.so.conf and explicitly added a line for 
/usr/lib and run ldconfig as you've suggested. It hasn't made a damned bit 
of difference as far as I can see though.

It might help if I knew what I was supposed to enter into the data source 
url box in OOo though.

Cheers


Steve
