This only happens on initial invocation of OpenOffice. Since I only use Writer, I don't know if the problem affects other OOo modules.
Subsequent launches of OOo Writer do not cause crash. Maybe because the Quickstater is no longer running?

How to reproduce
-----
1. OpenOffice Starter is running
2. Lauch OOo Writer from KDE Panel.
3. OOo Writer or OOo Quickstart crashes. Writer does not successfully run.

It works fine from Gnome. I'm getting a black screen instead of KDE, so I cannot try it from there.

Comment 3 Caolan McNamara 2010-06-17 10:09:08 UTC
Works fine here, though I only have KDE on rawhide, and not exact F-13. Strangely noone else has reported this, so I suspect there's some special required to get this to happen

Comment 4 Caolan McNamara 2010-06-18 15:54:15 UTC
caolanm->dallen: Are you able to reproduce this ? If so can you give an exact step. What I've tried is logging into KDE, running writer, ticking the use quick starter option under options->openoffice.org, closing all windows except for the quick starter. Logged back in, verified that the quickstarter is visible, ran start->applications->office->openoffice.org word processor. 

Also tried running it real fast before the quickstarter showed up and that seemed to be ok as well.

Comment 5 David Allen 2010-06-18 21:03:32 UTC
I seem to have been wrong about QuickStarter running. Unless it got turned off somehow (which I doubt). So, while the problem persists, it is not likely related to QuickStarter itself.

There is only one exact step: launch OOo from the panel in KDE 4.4, running on Fedora 13 (upgraded from F12 - i.e. /not/ a fresh install of F13).

F13 is started in runlevel 5. The Session Manager starts several apps and places them among 8 virtual desktops: 1 Konsole, Firefox (FF), Thunderbird (MTB), Pidgin, Thunar, and Kmix. My startup process is to log into Pidgin and open a Buddy list, and log in to several email accounts and fetch mail with MTB. My FF home page consists of about 40 tabs.

Hardware consists of

o Asus M3N78-EM motherboard
o AMD64 9600 CPU
o 4 GB RAM
o Nvidia 9600GT video card
o Up-to-date (via KPackageKit) Fedora 13

I suppose it could be a memory-related issue.

I can try these steps and report back with and without QuickStarter.

I'll have to be honest, and give up on this one. I can't reproduce it, or make a stab at the circumstances that created it
