Guys, could you run "set | grep -i utf" and tell me if you're running with LANG, LOCALE, et cetera, set to en_US.UTF-8? If so, can you try running OOo with LANG=en_US and let us know if it fixes it?

I changed my LANG, LOCALE, etc to various settings using export, but that didn't fix it. However, the combination of your idea and a post on ooforums started me looking toward fonts, and it turns out that something is amiss with the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb directory in XFree86. The ooforums post talked about the "compiled" directory in this folder causing problems because it is not writeable, but it appears that the xkb folder is almost completely empty in a stock XFree install.
So basically, I copied the xkb folder from my LTSP3 tree into the LTSP4
tree, restarted my X session (ctrl-alt-backspace) and StarOffice7 and
OOo 1.1 menus work flawlessly.
Thanks for the hint! Here are the steps to replicate (as root on the server), assuming you have v3 installed in /opt/ltsp3:
cd /opt/ltsp4/i386/usr/X11R6/lib/X11 mv xkb xkb.old cp -R /opt/ltsp3/i386/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb xkb
Restart and give it a shot. I haven't fully figured out what the problem is with this dir. My XFree86 is a custom 4.3.0 build straight off of xfree86.org, and it was in the same condition as the 4.2.99 shipped with LTSP4: an empty xkb directory with only a symlink inside it to /usr/X11R6/bin/xkbcomp.

What if you don't have an excisting V3 install ?? (like me...)
Also, Anyone know of a broblem where one key on the keyboard seems not to work... I have this problem with keypad number 2.
