OK, I found a solution for myself: First, I had to delete (with backup of course) the file /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1Beta2/share/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Linguistic.xcu (I installed OOo from the tarball from openoffice.org). The file $USER_INSTALL_DIR/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Linguistic.xcu is re-written every you exit from OOo. If you have changed the language and dict settings, then these new settings are saved and reloaded after a restart of OOo -- great! But after a re-restart the original settings are back :( So I backuped the Linguistic.xcu file (in my home dir, user install of OOo) after the first restart with the correct settings (remember: the first time the settings are saved ok). Then I copied this good file over the old file and restarted OOo - great, user settings are back! Ok, so I thought I change permissions and/or owner of this file, so that OOo can't rewrite this file after the first restart. But - can't explain why - the file gets overriden, even if I chown to root :( I am afraid I have to write a small wrapper script, which copies my good Linguistic.xcu over the old one every time before I start OOo... Greetings, Matthias PS: Sorry if my explanation isn't very understandable, but I am somewhat tired now and have to go to bed ;) PPS: I attached my good Linguistic.xcu file from my homedir. It's for a german setup, but maybe you can get an idea for other languages from it... -- Matthias F.
