there are two workarounds: 1- disable compiz before starting to work with a OpenOffice document which contains footnotes with the command in the terminal:
metacity --replace 2- move the mouse indicator away from the text with notes and use the keyboard to work. In case moving the mouse compiz crashes you can always restart it with the command: compitz --replace It's not a solution but as an academic at least it allows me to work using ubuntu-openoffice-compitz... -- Long footnote preview makes compositing crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/591723 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
