I have some trouble to get a working OOo 2.0.3 under Linux (Debian Sarge        
with openoffice.org-core 2.0.3-1bpo1 from backports.org).                       
                                                                                
My /home is mounted from a central server trough NFSv4, the OOo files live in   
a local /usr directory.                                                         
                                                                                
As root I am able to start openoffice with no problems, as a normal user the    
startup fails. After search the web I found two environment variables to tune:  
                                                                                
STAR_PROFILE_LOCKING_DISABLED and SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING                       
                                                                                
So I modified /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice to the following:
,----[ excerpt of /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice ]---                      
|                                                                               
| STAR_PROFILE_LOCKING_DISABLED=1                                               
| export STAR_PROFILE_LOCKING_DISABLED                                          
| #                                                                             
|                                                                               
| # file locking now enabled by default                                         
| SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=0                                                     
| export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING                                                
|                                                                               
`----                                                                           
                                                                                
The problems (OOo hangs with splash screen or segmentation faults) are still    
there.                                                                         
           

Next I tried the following:                                                     
                                                                                
- remove the ~/.openoffice.org2 directory                                       
                                                                                
- create a soft link from a local directory to ~/.openoffice.org2               
  (mkdir /tmp/OOo2; ln -s /tmp/OOo2 .openoffice.org2)                           
                                                                                
- start openoffice (which is a link to /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice      
                                                                                
- Openoffice starts with no trouble                                             
                                                                                
It looks like there are some problems with the .openoffice.org2 files in a      
NFS(v4?) mounted /home.
