OOo looks at your environment to determine which desktop you are
running and tries to activate an appropriate plugin to integrate with
the DE.
You can override this with the OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP environment variable,
which can be 'kde', 'gnome', or 'none'.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Environment_Variables
So try something like:
OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=kde oowriter2
And see if you get different results.
Yeay! Result! Gnome and KDE look cool. 'none' looks yukky. So, I
guess mine picks up none, which is puzzling given my USE flags - I
mean, what's the point setting flags then? How can I make OOo pick a
particular desktop env permanently? Where can I set it up?
Thanks for your help!
