please do...
gdb /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.104/program/soffice.bin
(gdb) run
(gdb) bt
and put the output here.

I bet you have a nvidia driver.

Comment 2 Mark Adams 2005-06-15 06:55:43 UTC

I've encountered the same bug, and your bet is correct for me. If I disable the
Nvidia driver, then OpenOffice will start.

Here's the backtrace you requested:
----------------------------------
(gdb) bt
#0  0x00000000 in ?? ()
#1  0x006e3955 in pthread_once () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
#2  0xf75fa95e in glXChannelRectSyncSGIX () from /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
#3  0xf762c2b8 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
#4  0xf75facb0 in _init () from /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
#5  0xffff9f10 in ?? ()
#6  0x00000000 in ?? ()
-----------------------------------
Any workarounds possible, or am I stuck choosing between 3D support or a word
processor at this point?

Comment 3 Caolan McNamara 2005-06-15 07:45:12 UTC

SAL_NOOPENGLyou can try and disable OOO's 3d support with 
export SAL_NOOPENGL=true
