As you can see, also, this command removes the ubuntu-desktop -> Well, we have jesus with us!!!! STEP 3: After this, I made: sudo aptitude install openoffice.org followed by sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop STEP 4: after a sincere pray (!) I shoutdown my machine and... ubuntu feisty starts again with no problems! (this is my ubuntu, thtat accepts all my madness) STEP 5: I started OpenOffice Text Editor - now in English, finally. STEP 6: Its time to try to open a .doc (ms-word file) Nothing! The same problem: I Can't open a .doc file.
