Hey - I'm having exactly the same issue. I tried turning off the visual effects and it seemed to have worked and then froze on me again. I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop and it looks like the Advanced desktop effects settings weren't installed. Looks like this is a problem for other Debian-based

To test Fuchs' desktop effects theory, I created a new user without desktop effects (System--Preferences--Appearance--Visual Effects--None and all effects disabled in System--Preferences--Advanced Desktop Effects Settings). Indeed I was able to create a simple OOo Writer doc and export as PDF and

As I already told people in the german ubuntu forums: OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=none is an easier way to workaround this problem. You can either set this before running OpenOffice or put it in the soffice file. A person there said that this problem only occurs with desktop effects (read:

Got the same problem as Basil. Was able to Export and Save As just fine (both as PDF and Word) before the big OpenOffice.org upgrade a few days ago. -- OpenOffice hangs when 'Save as...' or 'Export as pdf' with an already saved document. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237840 You received this

The problem appears to be in in the openoffice.org-gnome package. To get a working OO system I did this: Remove all openoffice packages:- sudo apt-get purge openoffice.org-* Then go to ApplicationsAdd/Remove and add 'OpenOffice.org Office Suite' This will give a working OO although it does not

Looking at it further, the package that makes OO go odd appears to be 'openoffice.org-gtk' This can be loaded by itself. When loading 'openoffice.org-gnome' the -gtk package is loaded as well. I now have a workable OO but the look and feel is a bit retro. It would be good to get it working with

Since accepting an upgrade to OpenOffice yesterday on Ubuntu 8.04, I can neither Export or Save As from OpenOffice Writer or Calc. This is a big issue, as I (unfortunately) still have to send documents to people in MS Word format. I will be fine providing a fix is coming out in the next couple

I get this in Open Office Draw. If I do 'Save As' OO Draw hangs. When I try to quit I have to 'Force Quit' it. Same happens with'Export'. The drop down menu title 'File' disappears as it hangs. It makes the programme unusable. This is a very serious bug. I'm running Hardy 2.6.24-19 AMD64 with OO
