I am unable to reproduce the problem on my configuration.
Could you check with this command is the window exists:
xwininfo -root -tree | grep VCLSalFrame
Here, I get something like that:
0x2c00012 "VCL ImplGetDefaultWindow": ("VCLSalFrame" "OpenOffice.org 3.1")
2552x1050+1152+0 +1152+0
0x2c0066a "Ouvrir": ("VCLSalFrame" "OpenOffice.org 3.1")
672x350+0+0 +1426+454
0x2c0001c "Sans nom 1 - OpenOffice.org Writer":
("VCLSalFrame.DocumentWindow" "OpenOffice.org 3.1") 1058x855+0+0 +1800+31
You should get "Open" instead of "Ouvrir" since your locale is
en_US.UTF-8. Then, use the following command :
xwininfo -id 0x2c0066a -all
Replace 0x2c0066a by the actuel value in your case. The output should
give use some information.
