(selected component) Additional info:
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.
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 ??
