Hi Rene!

Now I completely reinstalled openoffice.org and
openoffice.org-debian-files with --force-confmiss after removing
/etc/openoffice. Then I created a new user, started gnome, started
openoffice. Bang. Same same.

My wild guess is that it has to do with fonts. *WILD GUESS*. I have a
huge amount of fonts installed here (dpkg -l | grep font gives):
	gsfonts
	gsfonts-x11
	latex-xft-fonts
	t1-cyrillic
	t1-xfree86-nonfree
	ttf-baekmuk
	ttf-bangla-fonts
	ttf-bitstream-vera
	ttf-freefont
	ttf-indic-fonts
	ttf-isabella
	ttf-kochi-gothic-naga10
	ttf-kochi-mincho-naga10
	ttf-larabie-deco
	ttf-larabie-straight
	ttf-larabie-uncommon
	ttf-opensymbol
	ttf-tamil-fonts
	ttf-thryomanes
	ttf-xfree86-nonfree
	tv-fonts
	unifont
	xfonts-100dpi
	xfonts-100dpi-transcoded
	xfonts-75dpi
	xfonts-75dpi-transcoded
	xfonts-base
	xfonts-base-transcoded
	xfonts-bitmap-mule
	xfonts-biznet-100dpi
	xfonts-biznet-75dpi
	xfonts-biznet-base
	xfonts-biznet-iso-8859-2-100dpi
	xfonts-biznet-iso-8859-2-75dpi
	xfonts-biznet-iso-8859-2-base
	xfonts-dosemu
	xfonts-efont-unicode
	xfonts-intl-arabic
	xfonts-intl-asian
	xfonts-intl-chinese
	xfonts-intl-chinese-big
	xfonts-intl-european
	xfonts-intl-japanese
	xfonts-intl-japanese-big
	xfonts-intl-phonetic
	xfonts-jmk
	xfonts-konsole
	xfonts-scalable
	xfonts-terminus
	xfonts-thai
	xfonts-thai-etl
	xfonts-thai-manop
	xfonts-thai-nectec
	xfonts-thai-ttf
	xfonts-thai-vor

Could this be the reason?

I have disabled my local fonts from /etc/fonts/local.conf so this should
be not the case.

Best wishes

Norbert
