Description of problem:

Whenever I try to open either an .odp or .ppt file with impress, either the whole system freezes or I get strange distortions all over my screen.

3.3.2.2-10.fc15

How reproducible:
Every time


Steps to Reproduce:

2. open it



Additional info:

Not sure if there's a connection to this problem but I'm using the proprietary nvidia-driver.

There's been a long history of fedora and those drivers fighting with eachother. It doesn't sounds like an app-level problem.

The nouveau drivers are pretty slick these days, give those a try and see if they work.

Unfortunatly, that's not an option the nouveau-drivers don't work properly with my graphics card. But thank you anyway.
