Oh, that's not so good :(  I didn't look at the buttons.  On 1.1 at least
there is a checkbox 'Text only' on the page 'Select button style'.  The
buttons then appear as text - you could try that.

We've only just uploaded 1.1rc to unstable, and it is sitting waiting for

You could try installing it from the 'unstable' section of our repository,
although you'll need to upgrade a few libraries to the unstable version:

OOo doesn't use a library - the patented source is directly in OOo, and I
had to remove it before uploading the sources to Debian.
