I think I might have discovered the 'guilty' packages causing the controls of the Presenter Console not being displayed. At first, I was shocked to learn that even when I installed the packages from LO's website, the issue still remained. I then started looking (with the help of Synaptic) for any remaining packages which had any reference to libreoffice and which were coming from the Ubuntu repo's.
Turns out that even while I expected to be rid of all LO packages when removing any package starting with 'libreoffice', there are still other packages which don't have 'libreoffice' in their name, but still influence the behaviour of LO (luckily this is mentioned in their description). The suspect here is the "Libreoffice UNO runtime environment". While I have no idea what this means for me as a user if I don't have it installed, removing all packages related to this environment fixed the problem! So perhaps a bug should be filed on the UNO runtime environment as well? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/711914 Title: Presenter Console doesn't work Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: libreoffice Installing presenter-console it's shown as a working estension on Tools -> Manage Extension but connecting an external monitor doesn't works.
