About k3b: It works fine. You should read it's pkg-message (was  
displayed after the installation of k3b):
pkg_info -Dx k3b

About OpenOffice: Normally, you can use packages for big apps like Openoffice.
ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/FreeBSD/2.2.1/FreeBSD7/

As you have already installed it, try to start it from a console and  
see which error message you get.

There's no need to go back to Linux, you just have to think a bit  
different in FreeBSD ;-)
