The office suit applications are the most important for me so I can empathise. If none of the posts on the Open Office forums sort out the problem you could try posting there as well. To be honest with you I'm feeling in the dark at this point. Why a virtual machine should be affected by this I don't know. As it all works on my machine and not yours what's the difference? Well one other thing is the gui, I'm still on gnome2, and on the forums are several posts along the lines of "Unity problems". If none of the above works then searching for and reading up on "Unity" in the open office forums may be worthwhile. In my opinion office suits achieved full funcionality many years ago and most of the new bells and whistles ( new hardware, protocols and exploits excepted) are frills added only for the sake of looking innovative. Version 3.3 was ok it seems, there's nothing wrong with ducking the latest for the sake of stability. If not, according to the thread in the oo forums, you may need to play around with oo and java versions. The last post date is some time ago, 7/12/11, so perhaps it has been fixed by now. That said I used Open office on Ubuntu 10.04, then also installed Libre Office and didn't encounter it, both are still running sweetly. If you follow the link to the bug report, the last post on it has a workaround.Īpparantly this bug also affects Libre office and Windows users. According to some posts on that forum you may be up against a bug which only sun can fix. So I'm not an expert on this and simply pointed you to where the experts are. I used open office for years but actually switched away from it, even though it was the default in my 10.04 install, because I prefer it's philosopy.
