Did you fill in the appropriate stuff in the Tools>Options>Security
menu item?  I found that the ClassPath setting was absolutely vital
for using JDBC connectivity to databses.

Errr... or did I infact completely misinterpret what you meant, and
actually you're saying that OO won't install because it doesn't pick
up that you've got java/jdk14 installed as your default JDK and so
complains about unfulfilled dependencies?  You could try setting
JAVA_HOME to /usr/local/jdk1.4.2 and/or editing /usr/local/etc/javavms
to that the FREEBSD-JDK1.4.2 line comes first in the file.

	Cheers,
