If you're referring to it getting hung-up, then this has happened to me a few times - my solution is to shut it down -> clear out the caches [CCleaner is good] -> re-start the computer; when it re-starts, OO/LO works great again.
One of the problems with OO/LO is its immense size; if there were some way to reduce its size then this might not occur, but then it might not be as good a program as it is ;-) Mine is not caused by 'calling home or anywhere' since my machine only allows 'cookies', etc. which I accept and only at the time I accept them; in fact, each time I've tested my machine, it's invisible to these robotic eyes :-) On Fri, Jul 20, 2012 at 1:44 AM, Robert Mesibov <mesi...@southcom.com.au>wrote: I'm running LibreOffice 3.4.6 OOO340m1 (Build:602) on Debian Squeeze. > > The progress bar on the splash screen stops part-way during startup for > about 10 seconds.
