Also, I've just installed Sidux (64 bit) on a spare partition. This issue is present in it as well. I suspect an unmet dependency in Debian? But, my laptop is running Mepis_64 upgraded to Sid, and does NOT have this issue... Will try to draft some other Mepis users to verify the presence of this issue on their systems... Also might be good to bring Pavel in on this in case it's a problem with his builds.

Simply opening an OOo app and closing it gives a SIG 6, opening, editing, saving, and then closing gives a SIG 11. This did NOT occur with m5. Data integrity does not seem to be effected.

I noticed that in the gallery subfolder there is a .wav file. I have no idea where that came from - I played it and its a song I've never heard before.

Right-click can be anywhere in the document, blank space or a word, selected or not. On a whim, I just renamed my .openoffice.org2 folder, which forced OOo to create a new one with the defaults. The bug no longer occurs. So something in the way OOo interacts with that folder is the issue. I have a few custom macros in there and that's about all. Will experiment as I have time to try to narrow it down. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The actual delay for me is 6 seconds, and occurs every time I right-click, even if no action was performed in the interim. This system has a P4 running at 2 ghz and 1 gig ram, which I realize is old and slow, but this long delay is out of sync with other apps and other features of OOo and makes 2.4 unusable. I suppose it might be a Mepis issue. I will try to find another Mepis user willing to do a little testing. Irv - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sw-issues] [Issue 85648] Right-click in text area s pikes CPU

This occurs with any right-click in the text area, whether text is selected or not, and makes writer pretty much unusable. I've duplicated this behavior on two systems, one with and Intel and one with an AMD cpu. These systems are both older, but 630_m237 works fine with no delays, and other features of 630_m238+ work fine. I generally use the .debs from Pavel Janik's builds at http://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/680/, but have duplicated the behavior using the .debs from http://download.openoffice.org/680/.

It is occurring on this machine regardless of the video driver. VESA, nv, and nvidia drivers all behave the same. It seems betters in VESA because it runs 1024x768 as opposed to 2048x. Less screen real estate=faster blinks/harder to see, thus I missed it before. This is a low-end system -- 900 mhz Duron. Is it possible that the blinking is always present, but is less visible/problematic on faster systems? I have a slower system at home (without nvidia card) that I think I'll try m680 on and see it the blinking happens there, too. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Please have a look at http://www.xfree86.org/current/nv.4.html if your card is supported at all by this driver... I didn't find your Card (?)... Dunno about supported, but it works fine ;-) If nvidia and/or vesa work: why don't you use one of them? See my previous comment from today - turns out issue exists with all three drivers on this one system. Switching to nvdia driver was my solution, but (1) turns out to be no solution and (2) seemed sensible to file the issue anyway. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

One of my machines has a geforce ?x 64m video card, and I've been having trouble with m680 since about the .69 release. Symptoms are that many of the toolbar icons, both standard and formatting, visibly refresh whenever one of them is used. Click the 'bold' icon, for instance, and maybe 10 of the icons will blink, one after the other, and in no discernable pattern. One must wait for the blinking to end before one can use the program again. This slows down work and is visually distracting. I've done some playing around, and the problem exists only with the nv video driver. Use the vesa or nvidia drivers and it goes away. I don't know if it's a problem in 'pure' Debian or other Linuces. This happens in all OOo apps, but I couldn't find a category that seemed right, so am filing under Writer, assuming someone with more knowledge can straighten it out. Also, sorry if it's a dupe - I found the issue search utility to be nothing but frustrating. :-( If I can be of more help (like figuring out exactly what video card is in the machine in question), I'll be glad to.
