I'm running the Odroid U3 with a clean, free Debian Sid repo and a
vanilla 4.2.3 Linux kernel. Root partition was installed via
debootstrap from Debian Sid / free-only. And the kernel was
self-compiled from the vanilla, unmodified Linux kernel git. I'm
neither using the hackish kernel provided by the vendor, Hardkernel,
nor did I install any non-free Debian packages, firmwares or kernel
modules. The upstream support with free software is actually pretty
nice for this device :-). Even Device Tree Sources are available in
the vanilla kernel for the U3.

As far as I understood, the only proprietary software used is
some signed, small, proprietary binary blob in the first bytes
of the flash memory / eMMC card. To initialize graphics
first which then loads the bootloader (u-boot) which then loads
the kernel (as far as I understood).

"$ libreoffice --safe-mode" did not help, same crash.

I noticed, that running "$ libreoffice -h" crashed, too. However,
that one only fails with the very first line ("terminate called
after..."). The "Fatal exception" and stack trace is missing
on the command line output then.
