File->Open... change directory, open a file and then again File->Open. You 
will see the initial directory in the "KDE File dialog" is not the same 
as before.

Close application and repeat previous step, ¿do you notice same pattern? 
Yes, the first time the file dialog shows the directory that was saved in 
a previous version of OOo.

The file dialog must start always with the last used directory (as 
before).

First time it shows a "random" directory (in my case it's in fact the last 
direcotory I opened with OOo 1.1.2). Then it always positions in the home 
directory.

Directory that "holds" the last file opened from OOo.

Next time you open a file without quitting from the application.
