Hi,

I'm using Gentoo x64 (Kernel 2.6.17) with a Blackbox desktop.
OpenOffice 2.0.3 is installed (from binary, without errors) but is very
temperamental about starting.

I'm having difficulty pinning down the cause- no errors are given when
launched from a terminal, but sometimes the software will run but not
appear (i.e. openoffice and openoffice.bin appear as running processes,
but nothing appears on the screen) and yet sometimes the software works
just fine.

Launching the software is always the same- a splashscreen appears, shows
a loading bar, sometimes I get asked if I want to recover a previous
document (usually where I terminated a previous instantiation due to it
not appearing) and then the software either loads correctly or runs
invisible.

This issue only seems to affect oowriter, all the other elements of the
suite function fine.  When it does load, I've tried disabling GUI
effects and OpenGL rendering but the problem remains.

oowriter2 appears in my list of open windows, but shifting focus to it
does not bring it up (although it will happily steal focus from other
windows).

I'm curious to know if anybody knows of any obvious issues which might
cause these symptoms.

Many thanks,

Karl Lynch.
