StarOffice hangs on my laptop with only 256 colours, if at the same
time I'm running Netscape that allocates its own colour registers.
The work around is to use VNC to connect to a second X session running
on the same laptop. In the second session I only run StarOffice.
You may be able to do the same thing to control the screen resolution
that StarOffice runs under.
