I had this same problem.  I bet you're running the S3 or S3V X server. 
There is some incompatiblity with these servers.  This is what I did:


ran X with the SVGA server

$ startx /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA  


then installed StarOffice without lockups.

Downloaded the patch on their web site for S3 problems.  Installed the
patch.
Changed the environment setting mentioned in the README that came with
the patch.

Started X as normal, ran soffice without problems.
