    All good linux distributions include a version of Abiword, if it is
    reasonably up to date you wont need to install a new version unless you
    are really enthusiastic.

    Connectiva uses RPMs, so you will want the Linux RPMs
    Try the Gnome version first, and if you have any problems use the GTK
    version instead. (RPM = RedHat Package Management)

    Also learn about 'apt-get', it makes downloading updating software easier.
    Connectiva were the first people to use apt-get with RPMs (usually apt-get
    is used with Debain packages)
