Hi, try running the command 'openoffice' in a terminal and see if there is any error output.

Thanks, Dave.

Hm, that's just a warning though so probably isn't the problem. I guess it still crashed?

If so, report a bug, including details of your hardware and Ubuntu version. You might be asked to do this:

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask uterrorista for more information if necessary.
