Hi Guys
Regarding the installation and GUI problems reported using 9.10, I've done 3

Users should be aware that the version of OO in the Ubuntu repository is not

The backports guys may be worth a try. They aim to include newer
versions of software then the main repository.
But if you are going to Intrepid anyway, it's probably less hassle
just to wait, as Intrepid will include OO.o 3.
